Answer:

D.) store water, waste, and nutrients for the cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

D is your answer because the vacuole is like a closet for the cell. It can store anything the cell may use later or it can store waste that is to be taken out of the cell at a later time as to not contaminate the rest of the organelles. In plant cells, it can also help with support since it is so big.
