Plant Cell's Nucleus, help needed

Why is a plant cell's nucleus pushed aside because of the vacuole? In other words, why is the plant cell's vacuole bigger than an Animal Cell's?

Most mature plant cells have one or several vacuoles that typically occupy more than 30% of the cell's volume, and that can occupy as much as 90% of the volume for certain cell types and conditions.[2] A vacuole is surrounded by a membrane called the tonoplast.
This vacuole houses large amounts of a liquid called cell sap, composed of water, enzymes, inorganic ions (like K+ and Cl-), salts (such as calcium), and other substances, including toxic byproducts removed from the cytosol to avoid interference with metabolism. Toxins present in the vacuole may also help to protect some plants from predators. Transport of protons from cytosol to vacuole aids in keeping cytoplasmic pH stable, while making the vacuolar interior more acidic, allowing degradative enzymes to act. Although having a large central vacuole is the most common case, the size and number of vacuoles may vary in different tissues and stages of development. Cells of the vascular cambium, for example, have many small vacuoles in winter, and one large one in summer.

What's your point? Not everyone has the same exact class pre-requisites as you Lkr. In my school, everyone has to take Biology 1 freshman year.
