Best Answer

the leucoplasts are plastids without color that are storing different substances (such as starch in the potato). you can find leucoplasts in parts of a plant that are subterranean (roots). when potatoes are exposed to the sun the leucoplasts will transform into chloroplasts (so they will become green).
