I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. Leaves with carotenoid pigment turn yellow and orange during the fall. Carotenoids, also called tetraterpenoids, are organic pigments that are found in the chloroplasts and chromoplasts of plants and some other photosynthetic organisms
