A red apple could be a mixture of green and red, or even entirely red, depending on the type.

We see colour because the normal white light is made up different wavelengths. Objects absorb certain wavelengths of light while reflecting others. An apple, reflects the red wavelength while absorbing all the other colours and so it appears colour red. If you pass sunlight through a prism in order to generate a spectrum, and hold the apple in each of the dominating colours, you will notice the colour of the apple changing.
A red apple is every colour but red, this is because white light is a combination of every colour so when white light goes into an object it absorbs every colour but red which it rejects making it every colour but red. Neil Degrasse Tyson ( an astrophysicist ) covers this and probably explains this better on his youtube series Startalk.

I actually did an expirament on this topic. Red apples rot faster then green apples. This is due to the acidity in the green apple that keeps the green apple fresher. If you cut a green apple and a red apple in half, you will find that the red apple will start to brown slightly before the green apple.

An apple appears red because its skin contains pigments called anthocyanins. These pigments absorb most colors in the spectrum, except for red, which is reflected back to our eyes, giving the apple its red color.
