Dear student,
Please find below the answer:

Chloroplast imparts colour to leaves while chromoplast imparts
colour to fruits Both these are types of plastids
The green color imparted to leaves by chloroplast is due to the
presence of a pigment called chlorophyll in it while the color of
fruits is due to carotene and xanthophylls present in
chromoplast

Hope this information clears your doubt
Regards
