- Chloroplast, chromoplast, and leucoplast, all three are types of plastids.
- Leucoplast is a colourless plastid, involved in storage of starch lipid and proteins. Being colourless, leucoplasts are devoid of any pigments.
- Chromoplasts are plastids responsible for pigment synthesis. They give distinctive colours to different fruits, flowers and ageing leaves in plants.
