Leucoplast is a colourless plastid which stores starch
Chloroplast.Chloroplasts are green pigment used in the process of photosynthesis found in leaves.Leucoplast.Leucoplasts are colourless and are the storehouse of minerals and other nutrients found in the roots of plants.
does a Leucoplast look like a baseball and it is in a plant cell right
the ordanelles found in plant ONLY are commonly known as plant organelles the only one organelle which is found only in plant and tha isPLATIDS Plastids are further more divided into 3 types 1.Chloroplast (chromo=green) FUNCTION: gives green colour and hence is of great importance for the process of photosynthesis. 2.Leucoplast (leuco=white) 3.Chromoplast (chromo=colour) eg:petals,stamens
leucoplast
It is a plastid in cells that store starch
u should ask your Biology teacher
Difference between chloroplast and chromoplast : Chloroplast; 1) Chloroplast are green plastids. 2) They contains chlorophyll and carotenoids. 3) Lamellae are present in them. 4) They are sites of photosynthesis. Chromoplast: 1) Chromoplasts are non-green coloured plastids. 2) Chlorophylls are absent only carotenoids are present. 3) Lemallae are absent in them. 4) They add colour to the organs( e.g., flowers, fruits) for attracting animals to perform pollination and fruit dispersal.
Amyloplast is also called leucoplast. It is a nonpigmented organelle, or plastid, occurring in the cytoplasm of plant cells. It transforms glucose (which is a simple sugar) into starch. The process of doing this is called polymerization. Amyloplast stores starch grains within their streched membranes. They also can transform starch into sugar when the plant needs energy.
Plant cell is composed of cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, large vacuoles, mitochondria, lysosomes, nucleus, nucleoplasm, nuclear membrane, Golgi bodies called dictyosomes in plant cell, plastids- chromoplast, chloroplast, leucoplast, chromatin fibres, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes & granules.

Plastids include leucoplasts, chromoplasts, chloroplasts, and geontoplasts. Plastids are colored pigments that are found in most plant cell structures in the cytoplasmic matrix.

Difference between leucoplast and chromoplast 1) Leucoplasts are colourless 2) They are cylindrical or round in shape. 3) They are found in unexposed cells. 4) They can change to other types of plasids. 5) They take part in storage of food example amyloplasts, elaioplasts, aleuroplasts etc.

I'm actually doing that for my science organelle project. A leucoplast is a colorless organelle found in plant cells usually used to important biosynthetic functions as well as bulk storage. There are 4 different types of leucoplasts: amyloplast, elaioplast, and proteinoplasts. Within amyloplasts, there is a gravity- supplying plastid called a statolith. Next time, go Wiki (Wikipedia).
