Bananas (and other fruits) change as they ripen.

Biology

Answer:

What happens to the carbohydrate molecules in the fruit as they ripen?

During ripening, there is an increase in the breakdown of starch inside the fruit, and a corresponding increase in the amount of simple sugars which taste sweet, such as sucrose, glucose, and fructose. This process is particularly obvious in bananas as they ripen. Green bananas do not taste sweet at all, and the riper they get, the sweeter they taste. There is also a decrease in acidity as the fruit ripens and a decrease in bitter plant substances, such as alkaloids. Last, as fruits ripen they produce complex compounds that are released into the surrounding air, giving a ripe fruit its pleasant aroma.

If the voltage of this battery was increased,what would happen to the light bulb’s brightness
Degger [83]

Surprisingly, nothing.

Without changing the characteristics of the light bulb, it's not actually possible to change the voltage without changing the current as well. When the voltage is increased, the current through the bulb has to increase as well in order to make it glow brighter.
