Question

why ripe tomatoes are red and colour and unripe when green in colour​

Answer 1

Answer:

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

Answer 2

Answer:

As the tomato ripens, its colour starts to change from green to yellow and then eventually to red.

When ripe, the carotenoid can easily be seen as the dominant colour of the tomato, ie red.
