3. Each cell has a large central vacuole and a peripheral cytoplasm with a prominent nucleus.

4. These living cells are found in the soft parts of the plants, i.e., root, stem, leaves, flowers, and fruits.

5. The important functions of these cells are storage of food, filling up spaces between other tissues and providing support to the plant. When they contain chloroplasts as in leaves, they help in the synthesis of food.
