In plant cells, large vacuoles are needed to store water. In animal cells, other things are stored in the vacuoles including food and waste, therefore there are many small vacuoles. The main reason plant's vacuoles are so big is to keep the plant from bursting. Plants can absorb too much water. Without the enlarged vacuole, the plant would burst.
What else can I help you with?
What part of the cell is a storage unit?
Vacuoles is your answer. In plant cells Vacuoles are very large in animal cells vacuoles are much much smaller usually not even labelled in diagrams.
Is the vacuole found within a plant cell or animal cell?
Vacuoles are found in both plant and animal cells, but they are generally larger and more prominent in plant cells. In plant cells, the vacuole serves various functions such as storing nutrients, water, and waste products, while in animal cells, vacuoles are smaller and play a role in cellular processes like digestion and waste removal.
What protects and supports the plant cell?
The cell wall provides protection and structural support for the plant cell. Additionally, the central vacuole helps to maintain turgor pressure, providing support for the cell and the plant as a whole.
What is the difference between the animal cell and plant cell?
One main difference is that plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not. Plant cells also typically have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, which animal cells lack. Plant cells often have a large central vacuole, while animal cells have smaller, scattered vacuoles.
Central water vacuole?
A vacuole takes up most of the space inside a plant cell. It is a membranous sac that crowds the cytoplasm and organelles to an edge of the cell. It stores water, salts, sugars, proteins, and may also contain pigments that give flowers their colors. It also contains plant wastes that taste bitter to certain insects, discouraging some insects from eating the plant. ^ That doesn't answer the question. What is the structure? Not function.
Where is the large vacuole located in the plant cell?
Vacuole is a large organell.It in middle of the cell.
What cell have a large vacuole?
Plant cell
What structure in a plant cell allows the plant cell to make food?
What most of the plant cell is composed of by volume; a large central vacuole.
Which organelle is large in a plant cell but small or absent in an animal cell?
Cell vacuole
Where is the vacuole in the cell?
Typically, because the vacuole in plant cells is very large, it is located in the middle of the plant cell.
Do plant cell have a large vacuole?
yup
Is large vacuole found in both cells?
no , large vacuole found in plant cell because in animal cell water requirement is completed by other sources while in plant require large vacuole to maintain their shape.
Does a plant cell have a large central vacuole?
yes
What has a large vacuole to store water?
plant cell
What large structure occupies of the volume in a plant cell?
The central vacuole occupies a large portion of the volume in a plant cell. It is responsible for maintaining turgor pressure, storing nutrients, and regulating cell size.
Is vacuole found an animal cell or plant cell?
Vacuoles are found in plant and animal cells. Plant cells are known for their large central water vacuole.
How large is vacuole in a plant cell?
In certain cases, a vacuole can occupy up to half the volume of the entire cell
