In plant cells, which organelle primarily stores water and helps maintain turgor pressure?
A
Chloroplast
B
Mitochondrion
C
Golgi apparatus
D
Central vacuole
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the organelles listed in the problem and recall their primary functions in plant cells.
Understand that the chloroplast is mainly responsible for photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy.
Recognize that the mitochondrion is the powerhouse of the cell, generating ATP through cellular respiration.
Know that the Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport.
Recall that the central vacuole in plant cells stores water and other substances, and its main role is to maintain turgor pressure, which keeps the plant cell rigid.
