Cells found in plants and animals have similarities but can differ in function. Consider the following two organisms: a corn plant cell (Zea mays) and a camel cell (Bactrianus ferus). What is the best explanation for the difference in the cellular vacuole size between these two biotic organisms?

A. The corn cells' have a small vacuole size because it does not need long term water and electrolyte storage. B. The camel cells' have a small vacuole size because it does not need long term water and electrolyte storage. C. The camel cells' have a small vacuole size because it is not in contact with toxins that need to be removed from the cell. D. The corn cells' have a large vacuole size because it is in contact with many toxins in the soil which need to be removed from the cell.
