Answered by admin @



The correct answer is (d) It is smaller and does not give shape to the animal cell.

Animal cells have smaller vacuoles as compare to that of plant cell. It does not decides the shape of the of the animal cell. The main function of vacuoles in animal cell is endocytosis and exocytosis. They store the waste material. In plant cell the vacuoles cover almost 90% of the space and decides the shape of the plant cell as they are filled with water. This helps the plant cell to maintain turgor pressure.
