Answer 1

The correct answer would be c) food molecules.

A vacuole is a membrane-bound cell organelle present usually in the center of the plant cell.

It contains a high amount of water as it plays important role in maintaining the turgor pressure of the cell.

In addition, it contains a high amount of ions (such as K⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺), food molecules (such as glucose, sucrose, fructose), organic acids (such as malic, tartaric, quinic) and waste material.
