Question

Write about plastids and mitochondria in brief

Answer 1

Solution:

The plastid (Greek: πλαστός; plastós: formed, molded – plural plastids) is a membrane-bound organelle found in the cells of plants, algae, and some other eukaryotic organisms. ... They often contain pigments used in photosynthesis, and the types of pigments in a plastid determine the cell's color.
