Question

which metabolic pathway is taking place in resulting the formation of Co2 in preparation f idlies?

Answer 1

The answer is......


In idlies the bacteria are present they absorb carbon dioxide and after heating they release carbon dioxide and the idlies become puffy

in short


The bubbles of co2 trapped in glutein make idlies puffy .

Answer 2

The correct answer is fermentation.

• Fermentation is the process by which glucose is digested in absence of oxygen to produce energy. The carbon dioxide is produced as the byproduct of the process.

• This carbon dioxide helps in increasing the puffiness of idllies.

• Fermentation is also used for making other products such as beer, vine, ethanol, etc.
