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.
