Plastics


Plastics: A plastic is an important organelle for a plant cell. The main functions of a plastic are to produce and store food, and cause the charming and colorful appearance of flowers, fruits and leaves of a plant. By adoring the flowers with appealing colors, it helps a plant pollinate. There are three categories of plastics: chloroplast, chloroplast and Elastoplast. (a) Chloroplast: Green colored plastics are called chloroplast. They are found in the cells of leaves, young stems and other green parts of a plant.The grans parts of a plastic capture solar energy and convert it into chemical energy. This captured solar energy helps produce simple carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide taken from air with the help of many enzymes in strode. For having chlorophyll, this type of plastic looks green. Besides, the pigments carotids are also present in them. (b) Chloroplast: Though the chloroplasts are colored, they are not green. The photosynthetic pigment antiphonals, carotene, erythromycin, sycophancy etc. are present in them, and so some of them are yellow, some others are blue and red. The flowers, leaves and other parts of a plant assume their attractive colorful appearance from the mixture of those pigments. They are found in colorful flowers, leaves and roots of carrots. Their main purpose is to make flower attractive for pollination. Moreover, they synthesize the store different type of photosynthetic plaids. (c) Chloroplast: Elastoplast are non-pigmented in other plastics. They are usually found in the cells of the plant parts where where usually sunlight does not reach; for example, root, ovaries and embryo. Their main function is the storage of food. Elastoplast can be transformed into chloroplast or chloroplast in contact with sunlight.
