False.
Carotenoids are a diverse group of pigments that are produced by plants, algae, and some bacteria. These pigments have a wide range of colors, including red, orange, and yellow, and are synthesized in various parts of the cell, including plastids such as chloroplasts, chromoplasts, and leucoplasts. While carotenoids do contribute to the red coloration of some plant tissues, they are not exclusively red and are not exclusively produced in chloroplasts.
