Solution

The correct option is B False
Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles present in both plant and animal cells. In plants, usually a single, large and permanent vacuole is present. It typically occupies 30% to 80% of plant cell volume. It is surrounded by a membrane called tonoplast and is filled with cell sap. Vacuoles may or may not be present in animal cells. If present, they are small and numerous.
