Papayas are yellow due to the presence of carotene and xanthophyll pigments i.e, Caricaxanthin present in the chromoplasts of the fruit pulp.
Spinach is green due to the presence of chlorophyll a.
Edible part of watermelon is red in colour because of the presence of lycopene which is a red pigment.
