Vacuoles:

  • Vacuoles are membrane bound,  enclosed compartments in the cells wherein water, nutrients and waste material are stored. 
  • These are very prominent in the plant cells. 
  • The fluid present in the vacuole of plant cells is called cell sap. 
  • The membrane of the vacuole is called tonoplast. 

Formation of Vacuole:
These are formed through the pinching off from the ER. 

Functions of Vacuole:

  • In plants, vacuoles play a direct role in seed germination, water storage and giving specific structure to foliage and blooms. 
  • Some of the general vacuole functions include storage, maintenance of turgor pressure, regulation of internal pH and isolation of metabolic waste.
