Correct Answer: Elaioplasts
Solution : The correct answer is Elaioplasts.
Elaioplasts are a type of plastids in plant cells. They are responsible for the storage of oils and fats, particularly in the form of lipid droplets. Elaioplasts play a crucial role in lipid metabolism and can be found in various plant tissues, such as seeds, roots and tubers. Elaioplasts are found in the cells of plants, algae and some other eukaryotic species. They consist of a double membrane, an internal stroma and thylakoid membranes.
