Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles found in plant and fungal cells, as well as some protists and animal cells. Their primary functions include storing nutrients, waste products, and other substances; maintaining turgor pressure to support cell structure; and playing a role in cellular signaling and metabolism. In plant cells, vacuoles are especially large and help regulate water balance and store pigments and defensive compounds. In some cases, vacuoles can also participate in the degradation of cellular debris.
