Answer:

Vacuole

Step-by-step explanation:

The central vacuole stores water in the cell and helps maintain water pressure, or turgor pressure, within the cell. The plant wilts because the central vacuole is empty and the cell is partially collapsed. Once the plant is watered and the central vacuole is full again, the plant will return to its normal position and appearance.
