The chloroplasts store pigments. They are found only in plant cells, not animal cells. They store chlorophyll and other pigments.

Plant cells have a central water vacuole. This has two main functions: one is to store water,ions, pigments and toxins. The other helps in supporting the cell wall.

Plant organelles that store starches or lipids are called plastids, but not the chloroplasts.
Accessory pigments are found in plant cells and cyanobacteria. The thylakoid is the compartment, or organelle, where they are stored.

Yes, pigments can affect plant growth since plants absorb energy from the sunlight at different rates depending on the pigments each plant has.
An important fact about plant pigments is that it colors the plant green. It also makes leaves yellow and orange in the fall.
The pigments in a plant are vital to the process of photosynthesis. This process helps the plant make its own food using the energy from the sun. The variety of pigments allows the plant to grab more energy from the sun.
