The central vacuole is a cellular organelle found in plant cells. It is often the largest organelle in the cell. It is surrounded by a membrane and functions to hold materials and wastes.It also functions to maintain the proper pressure within the plant cells to provide structure and support for the growing plant.f you've ever looked at a diagram of a plant cell, you probably noticed one organelle that stands out and is larger than all of the others. This organelle is known as the central vacuole. The central vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle containing water and other enzymes that function during the life of the plant.
Vacuole (plants). Quick look: A vacuole is a membrane-enclosed fluid filled sac found in the cells of plants including fungi. Vacuoles can be large organelles occupying between 30% and 90% of a cell by volume.Vacuoles appear to have three main functions, they:1  contribute to the rigidity of the plant using water to develop hydrostatic pressure. 2  store nutrient and non-nutrient chemicals. membrane barrier called a tonoplast limits each vacuole. This membrane is remarkable in that it can surround a small amount of fluid and then, after a short amount of time, during which water is taken in, stretch to become an organelle occupying as much as 95% of the cell by volume.
