What is the function of the Vacuoles

• Store food, water and waste

• Receive proteins

• Assembles amino acids

• Found inside the nucleus

When we compare the CELL to a SCHOOL, Our Principal Ms Horton is like which organelle and why?

• She is like the mitochondria because she has so much energy

• She is like the cell membrane because she only lets kids in and out

• She is like the vacuole because she stores the school things in her office

• She is like the nucleus because she controls all functions of the school
