Its just to help retain the structure of the cell, but in some cells it is also to take in toxic's and keep the hydrostatic pressure.
But if this is homework it will just be wanting to maintain the structure of the cell (especially if it's referring to plant cells).

What function does a vacuole have in a cell?
vacuoles store nutrients for later use
Are central vacuoles located in prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
eukaryotic and only found in plants
What describes the cells of a wilted plant?
the central vacuoles contain little water
The cells of which tissue have a large central fat-filled vacuole?
Plant cells have a nucleus in the center of the cell. They also have large vacuoles. Other non plant cells also have a nucleus and vacuoles but the ones in plants are usually the large ones.
Why is there a difference in plant and animal cells?
plants have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and central vacuoles.
Do prokaryotes have large central vacuoles?
No. Only plants have large central vacuoles.
Do animals have central vacuoles?
No, but they have multiple, smaller vacuoles.
Do vacuoles produce proteins?
No; vacuoles function in storage and transport.

What is the major physical difference between vacuoles in a plant and vacuoles in an animal?

A central vacuole forms from what?
The fusion of smaller vacuoles.
A central vacuole forms from?
the fusion of smaller vacuoles
Define homologous structures?
homologous structures is same structure,different function
Is central vacuole a plant animal or both?
central vacuoles are found in plant cells
