Answer: Large central vacuole is a fluid filled specialized membrane bound organelle that is present in plant cells. The functions of this organelle are as follows-

  • The most significant function of the central vacuole is to maintain the turgor pressure ( generated against the plant cell wall) of the plant cell.
  • This provides structural support to the growing plant.
  • It helps in holding the materials and the waste products that is produced in the plant cell.
  • By doing so, it prevents other parts from the harmful effects of the waste material.
  • It helps in maintaining the pH of the cell.
