Vacuoles are waste-collecting organelles in both plant and animal cells. In plant cells, they additionally aid in maintaining turgor pressure to keep the plant cell intact.

The vacuole in plants is bound by a single membrane called a tonoplast. It is unique to plant cells since animal cells do not contain a central vacuole.

Hence, the correct option is tonoplast.
