Soaks up warmth and holds it within, as well as keeping internal moisture from drying out, thus speeding up the ripening, and the spoiling processes. A good example of global warming, on a kitchen table scale.

What will happen when an apple gets left out?

it will release ethylene faster at room temperature than if it were in the fridge. ethylene will cause fruit (even the ones next to it) to ripen faster. Also as fruits ripen they release more ethylene which makes them ripen even faster, until they begin to rot (over ripened). This is where the saying "one bad apple spoils the bunch" because literally 1 bad apple will release a bunch of ethylene making the rest of the apples ripen faster which will make them all release even more ethylene and since there are so many of them it just makes the process of the bunch ripening go even faster than if it was just 1 apple.
