Question

Ripening of fruits a chemical change

Answer 1

Any Biological changes including ripeni g of fruits is considered as chemical change , main reason is that the sugar content of the fruit changes which is itself a chemical so that is why it's a chemical change

Answer 2

Answer:

Physical changes are those changes where the chemical composition remains the same, even though the appearance or phase may change. Conversion of water to ice or vapors is a physical change, since it still stays water (H2O). Chemical changes, on the other hand, are those that involve a change in the chemical composition of the substance. Burning of wood or coal is a chemical change.

Ripening of fruits, such as banana, is a chemical change. A number of changes take place during the ripening phase. The color of the fruit changes, as does its texture. The fruit becomes soft  with the breakdown of its constituents. The sugar content of the fruit changes, and the fruit becomes sweeter.  

Given all these changes in the chemistry of banana, one can safely term the ripening process as chemical change.

Hope this helps.
