Detailed Solution

A Ripe banana releases ethylene gas.
Ethylene is a vital plant hormone. When bananas and many other fruits are about to ripen, ethylene production skyrockets. This surge causes a hard, green, dull fruit to transform into a tender, gaudy, sweet thing that's ready to eat. Fruit ripening involves a chemical reaction. Already ripe fruits release more ethylene gas than raw bananas. As the banana ripens, it becomes sweeter and the skin becomes yellow and softer. It is a slow change and it cannot be reversed.
