Correct Answer: Neither I nor II


Solution : The correct answer is Neither I nor II .

Plastids, known as amyloplasts, produce and store starch within internal membrane gaps. Potatoes and other carbs (starch) are stored by amyloplasts. Starch creates starch grains, which are insoluble granules found inside amyloplasts. Proteins are stored in a type of plastid known as an aleuroplast, which is a leucoplast. They are frequently discovered in seeds.
