Question
What is common between chloroplasts, chromosomes and leucoplasts ?
Options
A.presence of pigments.
B.possession of thylakoids and grana.
C.Storag of strach proteins and lipds.
D.Abillity to multiply by a fission- like proces.
Solution
chromoplasts are plastitids responsiblefor pigment synthesis and atorage. They , like all other plastids(including chloroplasts and leucoplasts), are organelles found in specific photosynthetic eukaryotic species. Chroplasts conduct photosynthesis. Chroplasts absorb light and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide to producesugars, Leucoplasts are nonpigmented, in contrast to other plastids such as the chlorplast. plastisds such as the chloroplast. lacking pigments, leucoplasts are not green, so they are predictably located in roots and nonphotosynthetic tissues of plant. they may become specialized for bluk storage of starch lipid or protein and are then known as amyloplests , elaiplasts or proteinplasts respectively.
