Chromoplasts
Plastids are organelles found in plant cells. These are involved in the synthesis and storage of food.
Plastids are of different types- (1) chloroplasts, (2) chromoplasts, (3) leucoplasts.
Chromoplasts are plastids that are coloured due to the pigments that are produced and stored inside them that is not chlorophyll.
They are found in fruits, flowers, roots, and senescent leaves and are responsible for their different colours.
So the correct answer is option D.
