 \huge \underline \mathbb \red {ANSWER}

⚫ Chromoplasts are plastids and contain carotenoids.

⚫ They lack chlorophyll

⚫Carotenoid pigments are responsible for different colours like yellow, orange and red colour imparted to fruits, flowers, old leaves, roots, etc.

⚫ Chromoplasts may develop from green chloroplasts. Chlorophyll and thylakoid membranes disappear and carotenoids are accumulated, e.g. during ripening of fruits.
