Detailed Solution

Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles found in plants and some protist cells. The main function of a vacuole in a plant cell is to store water, nutrients, and waste products and also help to maintain the turgor pressure and shape of the cell. Vacuoles do not produce energy or protect the cell, nor do they transport materials.

Therefore, the correct answer is the storage of water and nutrients.
