Question 3: In ________, the term leucoplast (leukoplast) is used for all unpigmented plastids. | |||
|
Question 4: ________: for photosynthesis; see also etioplasts, the predecessors of chloroplasts | |||
|
Question 5: Complex plastids start by secondary ________, when a eukaryote engulfs a red or green alga and retains the algal plastid, which is typically surrounded by more than two membranes. | |||
|
Question 6: In ________, plastids may differentiate into several forms, depending upon which function they need to play in the cell. | |||
|
Question 7: Plastids are major ________ found in the cells of plants and algae. | |||

Question 8: Plastids are responsible for ________, storage of products like starch and for the synthesis have the ability to differentiate, or redifferentiate, between these and other forms. | |||
|
Question 9: ________ also inherit plastids from only one parent. | |||
|
Question 10: Some ________ and sea slugs, particularly of the genus Elysia, take up algae as food and keep the plastid of the digested alga to profit from the photosynthesis; after a while the plastids are also digested. | |||
