1) Chloroplast :-

* Carry photosynthesis.

* Contain chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments.

* These are green pigments.

* Found mainly in leaves and green stem. They trap light for photosynthesis.


2) Chromoplast :-

* Carry non-photosynthesis.

* Contain fat soluble carotenoid pigments.

* They have red, orange or yellow pigments.

* Give colour to fruits, carrot, red peppy and flowers.


3) Leucoplast :-

* Carry non-photosynthesis.

* They have capacity to develop pigments when required.

* Colourless as they lack any pigments.

* Abundant in storage organs like roots, seeds and young leaves.

Ex :- Amyloplast stores starch, Elaioplasts stores store fats and oils. Aleuroplast store proteins.
