What types of eukaryotic cells have vacuoles that act like lynsosomes?

Vacuoles are found in plant and fungal cells because sometimes the vacuoles act like lysosomes. A vacuole is a vesicle. They contain enzymes that help a cell digest particles. The large central vacuole in plant cells stores water and other liquids. Large vacuoles full of water help support the cell. Some plants wilt when their vacuoles lose water.


WHAT ARE THE ADAPTATIONS OF THE PHLOEM?

Phloem cells do not have a nucleus, and they have very few vacuoles. They act much like a sieve.


What is the job of the vacuole for an plant cell?

Vacuoles act as storage for the cell. They can store things like nutrients or waste.

What do vacuoles in a cell do?

Vacuoles help to store mainly water, but they also store things like salts and carbohydrates. Vacuoles in plant cells are much bigger than vacuoles in animal cells.


Does a lemon have lysosomes and small vacuoles?

Yes. Except like all plants the vacuoles are large.


What are vacuole like?

What function do vacuoles perform in a plant or fungal cells?

Vacuoles in plant and fungal cells serve several functions, including storing nutrients, maintaining turgor pressure to give structure to the cell, and regulating the pH levels in the cell. They can also store waste products and contribute to the detoxification process in the cell.


Act as storage sacks within cell?

Vacuoles act as storage sacs within a cell. They are membrane-bound organelles that store various substances such as water, nutrients, and waste products. Vacuoles help maintain turgor pressure and regulate the internal environment of the cell.


Is vacuoles like a brain of a cell?

No, vacuoles are not like the brain of a cell. Vacuoles are membrane-bound sacs primarily used for storage and maintaining cellular pressure, while the "brain" of a cell is more accurately represented by the nucleus, which contains genetic material and regulates cellular activities. In plant cells, vacuoles play a critical role in maintaining turgor pressure, but they do not control cell functions like the nucleus does.


How are the vacuoles from paramecia different from the vacuoles of other organisms?

The paramecium might have a contractile vacuole, whereas cells like animal and plants just have a normal one.
