The large central vacuole stores water. When it is full of water, it exerts turgor pressure on the cell - wall, helping maintain plant cell shape and turgor pressure in non - woody plants. Chloroplasts are for photosynthesis, starch granules store energy, and mitochondria are for cellular respiration, none of which are directly related to maintaining turgor pressure.
