Ethylene



     These are a bunch of delectable and fairly sweet bananas. This bunch is an example of a plant that contains ethylene. Ethylene is a plant hormone that advocates several actions such as development, senescence and deterioration of dormancy, fruit ripening, and epinasty.The bananas showcased show the sign of ethylene as the color of the fruit transitions from green to yellow and ripens the fruit, making it sweeter.
