⚫Chloroplasts

Chloroplasts are biconvex shaped, semi-porous, double membraned, permeable cell organelle found within the mesophyll of the plant cell.They are the sites for synthesis food by the process of photosynthesis.

⚫Chromoplasts

Chromoplasts is the name given to an area for all the pigments to be kept and synthesized in the plant. These can be usually found in flowering plants, aging leaves and fruits. Chloroplasts convert into chromoplasts. Chromoplasts are carotenoid pigments that allow different colours that you see in leaves and fruits. The main reason for its structure and the colour for attracting pollinators.

⚫ Gerontoplasts

These are basically chloroplasts that go with the aging process. Geronoplasts refers to the chloroplasts of the leaves that helps the beginning to convert into different other organelles when the leaf is no longer using photosynthesis usually in an autumn month.

⚫ Leucoplasts

These are the non-pigmented organelles which are colourless. Leucoplasts are usually found in most of the non-photosynthetic parts of the plant like roots. They act as a storage sheds for starches, lipids, and proteins depending on the needs of the plants. They are mostly used for converting amino acids and fatty acids.

Leucoplasts are of three types:

♡Amyloplasts – Amyloplasts are greatest among all three – Amyloplasts, proteinoplasts and elaioplasts and are easily charged with storing starch.

♡Proteinoplasts – Proteinoplasts helps in storing the proteins that a plant needs and can be typically found in seeds.

♡Elaioplasts -Elaioplasts helps in storing fats and oils that are needed by the plant.
