Question

when temperature of glucose solution and yeast increased co2 relesed decrieed

Answer 1

Temperature changes have profound effects upon living things. Enzyme-catalyzed reactions are

especially sensitive to small changes in temperature. Because of this, the metabolism of a

poikilotherm, an organism whose internal body temperature is determined by its environment, is

often determined by the surrounding temperature. Bakers who use yeast in their bread making

are very aware of this. Yeast is used to leaven bread (make it rise). Yeast leavens bread by

fermenting sugar, producing carbon dioxide, CO2, as a waste product. Some of the carbon

dioxide is trapped by the dough and forms small “air” pockets that make the bread light. If the

yeast is not warmed properly, it will not be of much use as a leavening agent; the yeast cells will

burn sugar much too slowly. In this experiment, you will watch yeast cells respire (burn sugar) at

different temperatures and measure their rates of respiration. Each team will be assigned one

temperature by your teacher and will share their results with other class members.

You will observe the yeast under anaerobic conditions and monitor the change in air pressure

due to carbon dioxide released by the yeast. When yeast burn sugar under anaerobic conditions,

ethanol (ethyl alcohol) and carbon dioxide are released as shown by the following equation:

C6H12O6 ←⎯→ 2 CH3CH2OH + 2 CO2 + energy

glucose ethanol carbon dioxide

Thus, the metabolic activity of yeast may be measured by monitoring the pressure of gas in the

test tube. If the yeast were to respire aerobically, there would be no change in the pressure of gas

in the test tube, because oxygen gas would be consumed at the same rate as carbon dioxide is  produced.
