Solution

The correct option is C
Leucoplasts

Leucoplast is the plastid which does not impart any specific colour due to the absence of pigments. So, they appear white in colour. Leucoplasts are found in the non-photosynthetic tissues of plants. They are specialised for bulk storage of proteins, lipids or starch.
