Vacuoles are membrane bound sacs that are found in both plants and animals. The vacuole stores, temporarily, the carbohydrates known as lipids.

The main carbohydrate stored in vacuoles is starch. Starch is a polysaccharide formed by glucose units and serves as a long-term energy reserve in plants. It is stored in the form of granules inside the vacuoles.
The main carbohydrate stored in the vacuoles of plants is called cellulose. It is also the non-digestible matter that most animals pass through after they have eaten a plant.
Food is stored in the form of starch in the plant cell's vacuole, while water is stored in the central vacuole to maintain turgor pressure. Waste products can be stored in vacuoles or transported out of the cell through vesicles for excretion.
No, carbohydrates are stored differently in plants and animals. In plants, carbohydrates are stored in the form of starch, while in animals, carbohydrates are stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles.
Vacuoles are responsible for storing pigments and toxins in plant cells. Pigments like anthocyanins and carotenoids are stored in vacuoles to give plants their color, while toxins can be stored as a defense mechanism against herbivores.
Vacuoles have a functions and/or importances. 1. Vacuoles remove dangerous structural debris. 2. Vacuoles hold the waste/bad things. 3. Vacuoles export unwanted substances. So, for the main part they deal with unwanted substances.
Yes, carrots do have vacuoles. Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles found in plant cells, including those in carrots. Vacuoles play important roles in storing nutrients, maintaining turgor pressure, and regulating cell size and shape.
