ELI5: What exactly causes a banana to turn brown and what factors affect the rate of browning? explainlikeimfive


Just wondering what the specific reasons are that the banana turns brown and what factors affect the rate at which it browns. I just moved recently and it seems like the bananas I buy (same company, same grocery store) have been browning faster (They are stored above my refrigerator so about room temperature). The wikipedia on bananas covers ripening processes pre-sale but not much post-sale.
