Which of the following options is CORRECT about Chromoplast?
Correct answer: C. Membrane-bounded, Contains Pigment, Found in Plants
- A. Membrane-bounded, Contains Pigment, Not found in Plants
- B. Not Membrane-bounded, Contains Pigment, Found in Plants
- C. Membrane-bounded, Contains Pigment, Found in Plants
- D. Membrane-bounded, No Pigment, Found in Plants
Explanation
Chromoplasts are a type of plastid found in plant cells. They are membrane-bounded organelles that contain pigments, which give colour to plant parts such as fruits and flowers. Option C is correct because it accurately describes these features: They are membrane-bounded, contain pigments, and are found in plants. Option A is incorrect because chromoplasts are found in plants. Option B is incorrect because chromoplasts are membrane-bounded. Option D is incorrect because chromoplasts do contain pigments.

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.
