Fungi and Bacteria causes compost to rot because they are microbes...
When fruit rots there are various kinds of changes, one of which is that it becomes softer and ultimately liquifies. Hardness is a physical characteristic, hence if it changes, that is a physical change.
It keeps them from rotting, dieing, and catching disease.It can also improve the taste.
Um, no, they don't eat their owners, they are quite harmless. They prefer rotting fruit. In the wild they eat small amounts of nectar, sap, and rotting fruit. I feed mine really ripe banana, mango, and whatever old fruit I may have. As adults they do not eat a lot, they do most of their eating as larvae. I just found one today here in Costa Rica, they make fun pets.
Ethylene is a plant hormone that causes fruits to ripen. Unripened fruits can rot, so if ethylene caused fruit to rot, it should ripen them first. The cause of rotting fruit is most likely due to microorganisms, especially bacteria.
Fruit flies come from outside. They are small enough to pass through screens. They do not spontaneously generate from over ripe/rotting fruit.

Fruit that is old or has gone bad .

no. Rotting fruit is just changing the form of the fruit not making an entirely new substance. So, it is a physical change. Sorry ... rotting is a chemical change - the bacteria and molds are "eating" the fruit and changeing it into the eqivalent of poo. Drying fruit would be mostly a physical change.
Part of the rotting process is dehydration, losing moisture. As the fruit rot's, moisture is also lost which is weight.

Fruit flies will lay eggs in rotting wood. Fruit flies will generally lay their eggs nearly anywhere that they can.
Chemical change
Any where there is a rotting banana
freeze it
