Plastids are organelles found in plant cells that are responsible for processes such as photosynthesis, storage of nutrients, and synthesis of pigments. They have their own DNA and are believed to have originated from endosymbiotic cyanobacteria. Plastids can change their function and structure depending on the developmental stage and environmental conditions of the plant cell.

Do plants and animals both have plastid?
Animals cells do not have plastid but plants do.

All chloroplasts are plastids because chloroplasts are plastids containing chlorophyll. But, all plastids are not chloroplasts because only those plastid that contains chlorophyll are chloroplasts.
Is leucoplast type of plastid?
yes
Where is the plastid located?
in a cell ofcourse
Is plastid found in the nucleus?
The plastid is found in the cytoplasm, which is outside the nucleus. It is a specialized structure where starch, oils, proteins or pigments are stored.
