Solution

The correct option is A Starch
  • Plastids are a pigment containing double membrane-bound organelle which is the site of manufacture and storage of chemical compounds.
  • Leucoplast is colourless plastid as it contains colourless pigments and granules.
  • Leucoplasts differentiate into specialized plastids to store the starch and are called amyloplasts.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Starch'.
