Answer 1

Answer:

Chromoplasts are plastids that are coloured due to the pigments that are produced and stored inside them. They are found in fruits, flowers, roots, and senescent leaves. The colour of these plant organs is associated with the presence of pigments, apart from chlorophyll.

Answer 2

Chromoplasts are plastids, heterogeneous organelles responsible for pigment synthesis and storage in specific photosynthetic eukaryotes. It is thought that like all other plastids including chloroplasts and leucoplasts they are descended from symbiotic prokaryotes.
