The type of plastids which help in pollination is_________?
Correct answer: A. Chromoplasts
- A. Chromoplasts
- B. Leucoplasts
- C. Chloroplasts
- D. All of these
Explanation
Chromoplasts contain coloured pigments that make flowers and fruits conspicuous, helping attract pollinators and seed-dispersing animals. A student may choose chloroplasts because they are also plastids and contain pigment, but chlorophyll mainly captures light for photosynthesis rather than attracting pollinators.

About Cytoplasmic Organelles
Cytoplasmic organelles are the specialized structures suspended in cytoplasm, including mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles and centrosomes. Questions compare their structures and functions in animal and plant cells, including chloroplasts and the role of the endomembrane system in transport and secretion.
