IONIC working with JSON Format Advise

I am wondering which is actually the better method of handling this data in JSON. Especially working with IONIC

var quizs = [
        {id: 1, 
         question: '1.jpg', 
         desc: 'What color is displayed here', 
         answer: 'blue, green, orange'} 
]

or this 

var quizs = [
        {id: 1, 
         question: '1.jpg', 
         desc: 'What color is displayed here', 
         answer: [{
              color: 'blue', 
              color: 'green', 
              color: 'orange'}] 
]

The second one seems to be too much in repeating.

The second one isn't a valid object.
An object can't have multiple properties with the same name.

An option is to (properly) use an array, instead:

answer: ['blue', 'green', 'orange']

Using an array will have the advantage that you won't have to transform the answer to get one of the possible answers out of it.

To get "blue", your first example would require:

quizs[0].answer.split(', ')[0]

Where the array wouldn't need the split:

quizs[0].answer[0]
