Solution

The correct option is A Elaioplasts
Plastids develop from colourless precursors called proplastids. Leucoplasts are colourless plastids of various shapes; their function is storage. One type of leucoplasts is amyloplasts that store starch. Elaioplasts or oleosomes are fat-storing leucoplasts while aleuroplasts are protein-storing leucoplasts.
