The skin turns brown or black faster in the refrigerator, but the banana meat itself does not ripen that much more. In fact, it is recommended that ripened bananas be frozen to preserve them even longer. The cold temperature of a refrigerator encourages an enzyme (polyphenyl oxidase), which is naturally found in the banana, to polymerise phenols in the banana skin into polyphenols. Polyphenols are similar to melanin, the pigment responsible for the color in our skin. This is what blackens the skin of the bananas. Despite the color, the cold temperature will keep bananas firmer than a banana that has been left at room temperature for the same amount of time. The enzymes that break the starch into sugar, which makes the banana soft and ripe, work better at room temperature.

There are three main factors involved in the ripening and browning process, they are: enzymes, oxygen and phenols. Enzymes are protein-like substances that speed up or initiate chemical reactions. Phenols are defensive mechanisms the plant uses to fend off insects and microbes. The specific enzyme is called polyphenoloxidase. When the banana is attacked, the phenols are activated in the presence of oxygen by this enzyme. In this process the brown color is produced as a side effect. The first time the banana is attacked is when it is cut from the tree. Exposure to cold air, certain gases, and physical damage of the fruit will hasten the process.
Actually, a banana does not brown faster on a countertop at room temperature than in a refrigerator.

A banana turns brown faster in the refrigerator, BUT being cold keeps the banana in the current state of ripening much longer.
It is recommended you keep a green banana on the counter until it is perfect yellow, then put it in the fridge to keep it at the perfect state of being for eating.
Brown skin does not indicate bad banana.

Bananas turn brown faster in the fridge.
A banana will turn brown whether or not it is in a refrigerator. However, a banana will turn brown faster in a cold space, such as refrigerator, than if left in a space that is at room temperature. The skin of a banana turns brown or black faster in a refrigerator, but the banana meat itself does not ripen that much more. In fact, it is recommended that ripened bananas be frozen to preserve them even longer. The cold temperature of a refrigerator encourages an enzyme (polyphenyl oxidase), which is naturally found in the banana, to polymerise phenols in the banana skin into polyphenols.

All fruits, bananas included, give off CO2 which helps in the decomposing factor. Since your refrigerator is closed and only has so much space the CO2 builds up and causes them to rot.. Bananas do not "rot" faster in a refrigerator. In fact, they will last longer there. The skin turns brown or black faster in a refrigerator, but the banana meat itself does not ripen that much more. In fact, it is recommended that ripened bananas be frozen to preserve them even longer.

In a word, yes. The skin turns brown or black faster in the cold of a refrigerator, but the banana meat itself does not ripen that much more. In fact, it is recommended that ripened bananas be frozen to preserve them even longer.

Bananas ripen in a refrigerator, but they do so much slower than it left at room temperature. The skin of a banana turns brown or black faster in the refrigerator, but the banana meat itself does not ripen that much more.

Actually, you can put bananas in a refrigerator to help keep them from over-ripening. Some say refrigerating a banana changes its taste, but it is better than having it over-ripen or even rotting.

A refrigerator, a counter, and two bananas (preferably from the same cluster).
two bananas, a counter, a fridge, and some time.
It does not matter what brand. Bananas turn brown faster in the refrigerator.
it turns brown in the refrigarator
The banana in the refrigerator browned faster than the banana on the counter. The cold temperature makes a banana's skin brown faster. The banana in the refrigerator is still firm though, where as the banana on the counter is softer.
in the refrigerator
on the counter
If you mean a cut open fruit, no. Both are slowed with application of lemon juice.
Take two bananas on the same stem, separate them and place one in the refrigerator and the other on the counter to see which will brown faster.
Cold causes the warm climate fruits cells to break down faster.

because the refrigerator keeps it fresh and at one temperature. the counter changes temperature. Acetylene gas in the confinement of refrigerator hastens the browning process in banana.
