The vacuole stores waste and water in animal and plant cells both. However, a plant cell has one big vacuole, while an animal cell has a couple of smaller vacuoles.

The vacuole in an animal cell stores water, nutrients, and waste products. It also helps maintain cell turgor pressure, which is important for supporting the cell structure and maintaining its shape. Additionally, vacuoles can store pigments and toxins in some animal cells.
