Will a red or green tomato ripen the fastest?
A green tomato will typically ripen faster than a red tomato because it is still in the early stages of maturation. Green tomatoes contain higher levels of certain enzymes and compounds that facilitate the ripening process. Additionally, placing green tomatoes in a warm environment with exposure to ethylene gas can accelerate their ripening. In contrast, red tomatoes are already ripe and won't undergo further ripening.
Will putting bananas in the freezer stop them from turning brown?
Yes, putting them in a freezer stops the ripening process.
How long does it take for a tomato to turn red?
The time it takes for a tomato to turn red can vary depending on the variety and growing conditions, but generally, it takes about 20 to 30 days after the fruit has reached full size. Factors such as temperature, sunlight, and water availability can influence this ripening process. Warmer temperatures and adequate sunlight typically accelerate ripening.

When a tomato ripens is it physical or chemical property?
The ripening of a tomato is a chemical property, as it involves the process of biochemical changes within the tomato fruit that result in changes in color, texture, and flavor. These changes are driven by enzymes and other chemical reactions that occur within the fruit as it matures.
Do blueberries continue to ripen after being picked?
white and green ones do not red or blue ones will continue ripening.
Why does a paper bag have to contain an apple in order for a banana to ripen well?
Ripening apples produce ethylene (C2H4), a plant growth hormone. The ethylene promotes the growth (ripening) of the banana. The paper bag stops the ethylene from dispersing -- it keeps the ethylene concentration high.
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.
What chemical is responsible for ripening bananas?
Ethylene is the chemical responsible for ripening bananas.
