Solution

The correct option is D All the above
Plastids are membrane bound organelles found only in plants. They carry pigments or store reserve food materials. They can be classified as chromoplasts, chloroplasts (both contain pigments) and leucoplasts which do not contain pigments.

Leucoplasts are the colourless plastids and are of three types:
  • Amyloplasts which store carbohydrates
  • Elaioplasts store oils and fats
  • Aleuroplasts store proteins
