16
Q

nucleus

animal cell

A

contains DNA that carries genetic code for making proteins including enzymes needed in respiration

17
Q

cytoplasm

animal

A

where proteins including enzymes used in anaerobic are made

18
Q

mitochondria

animal

A

where aerobic respiration occurs

19
Q

bacteria- what don’t they have?

A

nucleus or mitochondria

20
Q

what is yeast

A

a type of fungus used to make bread and alcohol

21
Q

what does yeast have

A

mitochondria and nucleus

22
Q

yeast

making bread

A

yeast added to dough

dough is effectively a source of glucose needed for anaerobic

23
Q

yeast
brewing alcohol
what does it involve?

A

a fermentation process

24
Q

aerobic fermentation

A

yeast is exposed to air and grows rapidly on sugar provided

- some alcohol is produced but majority of energy is used to produce more yeast cells

25
Q

anerobic fermentation

A

absence of oxygen

yeast respites anaerobivally, produces alcohol and carbon dioxide instead of multiplying
