If you're wanting to know about plant cells and central vacuoles, the plant cell would not be able to effectively hold water or keep turgor pressure where it needs to be, so the plant would wither.

In animal cells "vacuoles" can refer to many things- phagocytic vesicles, endocytotic vesicles, etc.

In that case "vacuoles" is a poor choice of term because all of the structures that were previously considered vacuoles in animal cells have been formally named and identified for purpose.

the vacuole acts a sort of "immune system" for the cell. it carries out duties such as isolating materials that may be harmful to the cell and exporting them and aid in the destruction of bacteria in a cell. they also maintain the pH level in the cell. withOUT the vacuoles, the cell could face some serious "health" problems if you will.

Vacuoles act as a storage unit for cells, storing extra water, proteins, essential nutrients and excess wastes. The cell wall and membrane would most likely rupture, or even explode.
