Select the incorrect pair from the following:
Correct answer: A. Leucoplast-Carotene
- A. Leucoplast-Carotene
- B. Elaioplast-Oils
- C. Amyloplast-Starch
- D. Aleuroplasts-Proteins
Explanation
In context of leucoplasts, carotenes are not typically present because leucoplast are non-pigment organelles, and carotenes on the other hand are pigment organelles which show red, yellow or orange colour in fruits. The rest of the plastids have been correctly matched to what they store.
