Chloroplasts.
Chromoplasts.
and Leucoplasts.
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and eukaryotic algae that conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant.
Chromoplasts are plastids, heterogeneous organelles responsible for pigment synthesis and storage in specific photosynthetic eukaryotes.
Leucoplasts are colorless plastids found in endosperm, roots and other non-photosynthetic tissues of plants.
