the distance remains same because since the monkey climbs to reach the bananas the monkey goes up and the bananas comes down due to 'mg' of bananas acts downwards and 'mg' monkey acts upwards

hi, the distance between them remains the same.becoz as the monkey accelerates upwards (they are of same mass)thus the bunch of bananas also acccelerates with same magnitude (downward).

 

plzzz approve!!!!!!!!

The seperation between monkey and pulley will remain constant because if monkey starts climbing up then T>mg in both the cases of monkey as well as banana because they are of same mass,therefore banana  will also goes up and the distance between them will not change.   I ASSURED YOU THAT ABOVE TWO ANSWERS ARE WRONG.
