Explanation:
A vacuole is a membrane-bound cell organelle. In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small and help sequester waste products. In plant cells, vacuoles help maintain water balance.
In general, the functions of the vacuole 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.
