Question
Amyloplasts, Aleuronoplasts and Elaioplasts are examples of: A. Leucoplasts B. Chromoplasts C. Chloroplasts D. All options are correct
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Plastids are classified into different types based on their function and pigment content. Leucoplasts are colorless plastids involved in storage. Amyloplasts store starch, aleuronoplasts (proteinoplasts) store proteins, and elaioplasts store lipids/fats – all are types of leucoplasts.
Hint
These are all storage plastids that lack color, placing them in the 'leucos' (white/colorless) category.
