- Any of various small particles in the cytoplasm of the cells of plants and some animals containing pigments or starch or oil or protein
- Plastids are major organelles found in the cells of plants and algae. Plastids are the site of manufacture and storage of important chemical compounds used by the cell. Plastids often contain pigments used in photosynthesis, and the types of pigments present can change or determine the cell's color.
- (plastids) Membrane-bound organelles in plant cells that function in storage (of food or pigments) or food production. Term for any double membrane-bound organelle. ...
- (Plastids) Cells without a nucleus.
- (plastids) egg-shaped body in plant tissues that contains chlorophyll and is able to photosynthesize
- The same as chloroplast, from it come the terms aplastidic and plastidic for with and without chloroplasts respectively.
- Vital organelle that aids in the metabolism of unicellular organisms and plant cells (chloroplasts, chromoplasts, leucoplasts are examples)
- A general name for chloroplasts, used especially for chloroplasts that are not green.
- A specialized organelle found in plants, algae, and a variety of single-celled eukaryotes. It comes in a variety of forms including chloroplasts and apicoplasts.
