Solution

The correct option is C Leucoplast
  • Plastids are the organelles found only in plant cells. These are of three types, namely, chloroplast, i.e., green plastid, non-green chromoplast, and leucoplasts. Leucoplasts are non-pigmented or colorless plastids that are used for the storage of starch and oils.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
