State

Yeast alcohol fermentation, per Bio 0565, underlies baking, brewing, and winemaking, industries built on the same carbon-dioxide-and-ethanol byproducts that process yields.

Show

Saccharomyces cerevisiae leavens bread with the carbon dioxide it releases, and yields the ethanol found in beer and wine.

Watch for

Fermentation is facultative-anaerobic for yeast — the same species switches to aerobic respiration when oxygen is available.
