What are the parts of ps4 called and there functions?

Answer 1

IF YOU ASK ABOUT PLASTID


Plastids are of three types:

1. Leucoplasts are colorless plastids. They store the food of the plant body in the form of starch, protein and lipids. They occur most commonly in the storage cells of roots and underground stems.

2. Chloroplasts are green plastids because of the presence of chlorophyll. Chloroplasts occur abundantly in green leaves, and also to some extent in green parts of the shoot.

3. Chromoplasts are variously colored plastids. They are mostly present tin flowers and fruits.

One form of plastid can change into another. For example, leucoplasts can change into chloroplasts when the former are exposed to light for a long period.

Functions

1. By trapping solar energy, green plastids manufacture food through photosynthesis

2. Chromoplasts provide colored to various flowering parts.

3. Leucoplasts help in storage of protein, starch and oil.
