In what organelle of the beetroot cell is the pigment betacyanin found?

Within the vacuole. It is when the vacuole bursts or is damaged that the betacyanin diffuses out and therfore a red dye 'leaks' out of the beetroot


What is a secretory vacuole?

A secretory vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle found in certain cells, such as plant and fungal cells, that is involved in the storage and secretion of various substances such as proteins, enzymes, and pigments. When needed, these vacuoles release their contents outside of the cell through exocytosis.


Where are betacyanins found in beet cell?

Betacyanins are betalains which are vacuolar pigments (rather than other pigments which are found in plastids; anthocyanins are also vacuolar) therefore they can be seen as highly diffused because they are found in the largest part of the plant cell which is the vacuole. :)


Plant structure that stores food and pigments?

The plant structure that stores food and pigments is the vacuole. The vacuole plays a crucial role in storing nutrients, sugars, and pigments in plant cells. These stored pigments help give plants their characteristic colors.


Cavity that acts like a pantry to store water and dissolved minerals?

A vacuole is a structure found in plant cells that acts like a pantry to store water and dissolved minerals. It helps maintain turgor pressure, which provides structure and support to the cell. The vacuole can also store waste products and pigments.


What part of the cell is the vacuole found?

Vacuole is found in the cytoplasm of the cell.


Is the central vacuole in animals or plant cells?

the central vacuole is found in both the animal and plant cell. although they are found in both they play similar but different roles for each one.


Why is the pigment found in the vacuole of beetroot cells does not leak from the cell?

The pigments in beetroot cells are known as Betalains. These pigments can be found in the vacuole of the beetroot cells. The leakage of pigment tends to occur when the cell is exposed to extreme pHs (acidity) and/or temperature.


What you the function of the vacuole in a animal cell?

Vacuole stores food and waste of the organism (later used for transportation out of the cell). It can also contain protein pigments I think.


Where in the cell is the vacuole?

Vacuole is located within the cell. It is found in plant cell but little or no vacuole is found in animal cell


What may store water needed chemicals wastes pigments in plant cell?

central vacuole


What is the organelle that contains anthocyanin?

The organelle is called the chloroplast The photosynthetic pigment it contains is called chlorophyll
