As the tomato ripens, its colour starts to change from green to yellow and then eventually to red. This is due to the breakdown of chlorophyll, which in turn synthesises a red carotenoid (another pigment group), lycopene. When ripe, the carotenoid can easily be seen as the dominant colour of thetomato, ie red

Hope that it will help you

Colour in tomato is due to the presence of pigments found in the plastids and notplastids themselves. Tomato is red in colour due to the presence of lycopene pigment found in the chromoplasts
