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.
plastids are in cells, so whatever plastids are in cells are in the plant leaf.
Plastids are present in the storage tissue.
the color of plastids are similar to the chlorophyll in the chloroplast.
NO. PARAMOECIUM DOESN' T HAVE PLASTIDS BECAUSE IT IS A GENUS OF PROTOZOA. ONLY PLANTS HAVE PLASTIDS. FOR e.g. ALGAE-CHLAMYDOMONAS
these plastids contain chlorophyl.what kind of plastids are they?
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.
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.
Yes. Plastids can have several colors or can be colorless. The green plastids can perform photosynthesis and are named chloroplasts.
