Question

The addition of yeast into bread dough makes it raised by increasing its volume, and the growth of fungus takes place on bread slide when it is left for a longer time in moisture. A researcher took samples from the dough of bread on slide A, and from old bread on slide B. The researcher observed the growth of these organisms under the microscope. What type of asexual reproduction might have been observed by the researcher on both the slides​

Answer 1

Yeast is used to make bread dough. ... During fermentation, carbon dioxide is produced and trapped as tiny pockets of air within the dough. This causes it to rise. During baking the carbon dioxide expands and causes the bread to rise further.Saccharomyces cerevisiae also know as Baker's yeast is used in bread making and in production of many other bakery products.

It is used for the act of fermentation which is done by the yeast on the sugar/starch that is present in the flour. The starch is converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide by the act of fermentation.

The carbon dioxide in the dough makes the bread dough to rise and also provides the bread with softness and makes it fluffy after it is cooked.

So, the correct answer is 'Saccharomyces cerevisiae'
