Plastids were discovered in plants by German biologist Andreas Franz Wilhelm Schimper in the 19th century. He initially described plastids as "chlorenchyma" in 1883, later realizing their broader functions beyond photosynthesis.
The plastid was discovered by German scientist Andreas Schimper in the late 19th century. He observed these specialized organelles in plant cells and described their role in photosynthesis and other cellular processes.

No, cytoplasm and plastid are not the same. Cytoplasm is the fluid inside a cell that contains organelles, while plastids are a specific group of organelles found in plant cells (like chloroplasts). Plastids have their own DNA and are responsible for functions like photosynthesis in plants.

Animals cells do not have plastid but plants do.

Plastid
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.
in a cell ofcourse
The most familiar plastid is the chloroplast, which is responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. It contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that captures sunlight to convert into energy for the plant.
yes
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.
I don't no
Amyloplasts! :)
chloroplasts, chromoplasts, and leucoplasts
