the vacuoles in a cell are used for what

OpenStudy (clongoria2):

Vacuoles are membrane sacs that typically are used for transportation of food. Other vacuoles store water and minerals and even ions. In plant cells there is usually one large vacuole that takes up 80% of the plant cell. Basically vacuoles are used for storage of minerals and food.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are found in both animal and plant cells but are much larger in plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive. They can even store waste products so the rest of the cell is protected from contamination. Eventually, those waste products would be sent out of the cell.
