All fruit produce ethylene gas in order to ripen, so by keeping your apples and bananas together in the open you are speeding up the ripening process. Bananas ripen faster than apples, which is why they spoil first.
A banana takes on a slight bend as it ripens. A green, unripe banana is usually straighter.
Yes, because as the fruit ripens, it gives off ethylene oxide gas which speeds up the ripening and consequently the rotting also. When you buy green bananas, putting them in a bag causes them to turn yellow faster.

I actually did an expirament on this topic. Red apples rot faster then green apples. This is due to the acidity in the green apple that keeps the green apple fresher. If you cut a green apple and a red apple in half, you will find that the red apple will start to brown slightly before the green apple.

Green spots on bananas are caused by the presence of chlorophyll, a pigment that gives plants their green color. These spots indicate that the banana is not fully ripe yet. As the banana ripens, the chlorophyll breaks down and the green spots turn yellow, indicating that the fruit is ready to eat.

Green and Yellow
red
An apple turns green primarily due to the presence of chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for the green color in many plants. As the fruit develops, chlorophyll is produced in the skin, giving the apple its green hue. Over time, as the apple ripens, chlorophyll breaks down and is replaced by other pigments, such as carotenoids and anthocyanins, leading to a shift in color. Factors like apple variety, temperature, and sunlight exposure also influence the final color of the fruit.
