The organelle in the plant that will most likely store the absorbed herbicide waste is the vacuole. Vacuoles act as storage bubbles in plant cells. They could store various materials such as food or nutrients to help the plant survive. It can also store waste materials to prevent them from contaminating the entire cell.
