Lamellae, which contain pigments such as chlorophylls, carotenes, xanthophylls, phycoerythrin and phycocyanin, are located in the peripheral region of cytoplasm.

- True or False Cell walls are present in the cells of archaea, bacteria, algae, fungi, and plants only. Photosynthetic unicellular prokaryotes such as Oscillatoria exhibit a green color when viewed under a microscope because of the presence of numerous chloroplasts.
