Answer» Plastids : • These ORGANELLES are not present in animal cells. Chloroplasts (a type of plastid) contain the green pigment CHLOROPHYLL and are responsible for photosynthesis. Only green PARTS of plants have chloroplasts. • There are two other types of plastids called chromoplasts and leucoplasts. Chromoplasts contain pigments which give fruits and flowers their COLOURS. Leucoplasts store food and are found in the storage organs of plants. |
