Answer:

Chloroplast, chromoplast, and leucoplast, all three are types of plastids.

Leucoplast is a colourless plastid, involved in storage of starch lipid and proteins. Being colourless, leucoplasts are devoid of any pigments. (This option A is wrong).

Chloroplast are green coloured plastids containing thylakoids and photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll. Chloroplast are involved in photosynthetic production of carbohydrates.

Chromoplasts are plastids responsible for pigment synthesis. They give distinctive colours to different fruits, flowers and ageing leaves in plants.

All the plastids (chromoplast, chromoplast and leucoplast) are thought to be descended from symbiotic prokaryotes and therefore, they all divide by a fission like process.

Hence the correct answer is 'Ability to multiply by a fission like process'.

ANSWER:-

The main difference between leucoplast and chromoplast is that leucoplast is a colorless plastid, occurring in the unexposed areas of plants whereas chromoplast contains orange-red pigments and is found in fruit and flowers. Furthermore, leucoplast stores starch, fat, and proteins while chromoplast contains carotenoids and lipids.

Leucoplast and chromoplast are two types of plastids that occur in different parts of the plant. They perform important functions in the plant...
