FAQs on Vacuoles Video Lecture - Biology Class 11 - NEET

1. What is the function of vacuoles in plant cells?
Ans. Vacuoles in plant cells have multiple functions. They store water, nutrients, and waste products. They also help maintain the shape and rigidity of the cell by exerting pressure against the cell wall.
2. How do vacuoles aid in plant growth?
Ans. Vacuoles play a crucial role in plant growth by storing water and maintaining turgor pressure. When water is absorbed by the vacuoles, the cell expands, leading to the elongation and growth of the plant.
3. Can vacuoles be found in animal cells?
Ans. Yes, vacuoles can be found in animal cells, although they are generally smaller and more transient compared to those in plant cells. Animal cell vacuoles primarily function in storage and waste management.
4. How do vacuoles contribute to detoxification in plant cells?
Ans. Vacuoles in plant cells help detoxify the cell by isolating harmful substances and storing them temporarily. They can sequester toxins, heavy metals, and waste products, preventing them from causing damage to the rest of the cell.
5. Are vacuoles involved in the process of cell division?
Ans. Yes, vacuoles play a role in cell division. During cytokinesis, vacuoles contribute to the formation of the cell plate, which eventually divides the parent cell into two daughter cells. The vacuoles provide membrane and cell wall material for the growing cell plate.
