imagine that a plant cell has a damaged large central vacuole that is not functioning. which statement best describes how damage will affect the cells ability to function in photosynthesis

A. The cell will no longer allow water molecules into the cell and the mitochondria will lack raw materials

B. The cell will no longer be able to maintain tugor pressure and the chloroplast will lack raw materials

C. The cell will no longer be able to perform photosynthesis and the mitochondria will lack raw materials

D. The cell will no longer be able to store water and maintain tugor pressure, and the chloroplast will lack raw materials

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

The primary function of the large central vacuole in a plant cell is to maintain turgor pressure against the cell wall of the plant. This vacuole also perform other functions such as storage (water and other nutrients) and waste disposal. When this vacuole is damaged in plant cells, the cells may no longer be able maintain turgor pressure and store materials (water inclusive). Also, If the cell cannot store raw materials via the large central vacuole, the chloroplast will lack the raw materials required for photosynthesis.
