What effect does a paper bag have on a banana?
Placing bananas in a paper bag or any other enclosed environment will hasten the ripening process. This is due to the fact that, as a banana ripens, it emits ethylene gas. Ethylene gas is essential in the ripening process. If you place bananas in a bag, the gas concentrates and the ripening process accelerates. Ethylene gas is what banana importers use to accelerate the ripening of bananas prior to sending them to market.
What gas that accelerates the ripening of surrounding fruit does a banana give off as it ripens?
Ethylene gas, a natural by-product of bananas and other fruits, is what accelerates the ripening process of fruit. The riper a fruit is the more gas is emitted. Once green bananas arrive at their destination, they are placed in rooms and exposed to commercial ethylene for this purpose. A method to accelerate the ripening of other fruits, such as tomatoes, is to place them in a container with a fully ripened banana. The ethylene gas that the banana gives off will help ripen the tomato.

How does ethylene gas accelerate the ripening of a banana?
Ethylene gas is a plant hormone that triggers fruit ripening in many plants. The plants start producing ethylene themselves to synchronize ripening of all the fruit on the tree at the same time. Humans use ethylene gas to allow them to pick unripe fruit (which will survive better in transportation over long distances than ripe fruit could) and trigger ripening at the destination shortly before selling the fruit to the public.
