Question

(e) Define the type of respiration shown by yeast. Also write the word equation to represent this type of respiration.

Answer 1

aerobic respiration shown in a yeast cell and the equation is as follows

Glucose→Pyruvic acid→ethanol+carbon dioxide+energy

Answer 2

Answer:

The yeast has to switch to using anaerobic respiration to ensure it can survive. Ethanol and carbon dioxide are produced. Yeast can also be used to produce bread. Yeast respires using glucose in the sugar that was added to the dough.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H20 + energy (Glucose + Oxygen yields Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy)
