Q

Vacuoles

A

membrane-bound cell organelle, sequester waste products
The term means “empty space”. They help in the storage and disposal of various substances. They can store food or other nutrients required by a cell to survive. They also store waste products and prevent the entire cell from contamination. The vacuoles in plant cells are larger than those in the animal cells.
