Why do banana’s go brown all of a sudden when in the fridge?

When I buy a banana and put it fairly green in the fridge, it stays that way untill it suddenly is all brown while a banana just in the room ripes gradually. How come there is such a difference?

It’s speeds up the process of getting ripe or even rot. Pears and apples have the same problem.

Little tip:
If you want to keep bananas longer. Wrap the top of the bunch in plastic foil.
