Vacuoles are cell organelles that store water and enzymes. The size, shape, and structure of a vacuole differs according to the type of cell that it is.
Vacuoles in plant cells serve various functions such as storing water, maintaining turgor pressure, storing nutrients, and breaking down unwanted materials. They also play a role in cell growth and maintaining cell structure.
Protists can eat in different ways depending on their type. Some protists engulf food particles by phagocytosis, where they surround and internalize their food. Others absorb nutrients directly from their environment through osmosis or diffusion. Some protists can also photosynthesize like plants, using sunlight to make their food.
the vacuol
plants need more water than animals do
Yes. The fridge stores many things with its many shelves and drawers, just like a vacuole.
Ask someone that knows a lot about humans and vacuoles.

A vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle found in plant and fungal cells, as well as some protists and animal cells. It typically contains a solution of water, salts, sugars, and other substances, which helps maintain turgor pressure, store nutrients, and manage waste products. In plant cells, the central vacuole plays a crucial role in supporting cell structure and regulating the cell's internal environment. Vacuoles can also contain enzymes and pigments, contributing to various cellular functions.
Vacuoles are essentially enclosed compartments which are filled with water containing inorganic and organic molecules including enzymes in solution, though in certain cases they may contain solids which have been engulfed. Vacuoles are formed by the fusion of multiple membrane vesicles and are effectively just larger forms of these. In general, the functions of the vacuole in plant cells include: >Isolating materials that might be harmful or a threat to the cell >Containing waste products >Containing water in plant cells >Maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure or turgor within the cell >Maintaining an acidic internal pH >Containing small molecules >Exporting unwanted substances from the cell >Allows plants to support structures such as leaves and flowers due to the pressure of the central vacuole >In seeds, stored proteins needed for germination are kept in 'protein bodies', which are modified vacuoles If you wish for only two major roles, include: >Maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure or turgor within the cell >Contain waste products, specific molecules, and water
