In plants and algeas, there are organelles located in the cells called Pastids. Due to photosynthesis that gathers food for the cells, plastids cans change colors.

What is the shape of the cells of the onion epidermis?
these plastids contain chlorophyl.what kind of plastids are they?
Do onion cells have a cell wall x cell membrane nucleus x nuclear envelope x cytoplasm x vacuoles and plastids?
Yes, onion cells have a cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, nuclear envelope, cytoplasm, vacuoles, and plastids. The cell wall provides structure and support, the cell membrane regulates what enters and exits the cell, the nucleus houses genetic material, the nuclear envelope surrounds the nucleus, cytoplasm contains organelles, vacuoles store materials, and plastids are involved in photosynthesis and storage of pigments.
Who discovers plastids?
schimper discovered plastids!!
What plastids would be in a plant leaf?
plastids are in cells, so whatever plastids are in cells are in the plant leaf.
Where plastids are present?
Plastids are present in the storage tissue.
Who had discovered plastids?
van neil discovered plastids
What determines the color of plastids?
the color of plastids are similar to the chlorophyll in the chloroplast.
Does a paramecium contain plastids?
NO. PARAMOECIUM DOESN' T HAVE PLASTIDS BECAUSE IT IS A GENUS OF PROTOZOA. ONLY PLANTS HAVE PLASTIDS. FOR e.g. ALGAE-CHLAMYDOMONAS
What are plastids used for?
Plastids refers to the major organelle that is found in the cells of the algae and plants. Plastids are used for the site manufacture and storage of the important chemical compounds that is used by the cell.
Are plastids found in animal cells?
Plastids are generally not found in animal cells. They are typically only present in plant cells and some protists. Animal cells do not have plastids as they do not perform photosynthesis, which is the primary function of plastids.
What component is not stored in plastide?
Amino acids is not stored in plastids. Things that are stored in plastids are lipids, pigments, and starches.
Is the chloroplast green?
Yes. Plastids can have several colors or can be colorless. The green plastids can perform photosynthesis and are named chloroplasts.
