Question

Why is mango yellow in colour

Answer 1

Answer:

Mangoes have Beta Carotene which is attributed as the source of the yellow/orangy pigmentation of mango flesh.

The greater the intensity of the orange colour of the fruit or vegetable, the more Beta Carotene it contains.

The name Beta Carotene comes from the Greek “Beta” and Latin “Carota” (Carrot).It is yellow/orange pigment that gives vegetables and fruits their rich colors.
