Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A cell wall is rigid and will prevent the cell from bursting when there's too much fluid inside, pushing on the cell membrane.

However,

  • Cytoplasm is the fluid inside the cell with all the organelles and provides no support.
  • Nucleolus is inside the nucleus inside the cell and functions to make ribosomes.
  • Central vacuole is inside the cell and is used to store organic and inorganic materials that the plant needs.
