how is yogurt made?
yogurt is made from milk by adding LACTOBICILLUS bacteria, which feeds on the lactose sugar in the milk and produces lactic acid.
what is respiration?
respiration is a life process that happens inside cells so that they can obtain energy from food
what is the word equation for aerobic respiration (respiration using oxygen)
glucose + oxygen —- carbon dioxide + water + energy
bread - why does the dough rise?
C02 (carbon dioxide)
bread - why add sugar?
to give the yeast food/energy
what does optimum mean
best
bread - what happens to the yeast cells in the cooking process
they are killed
ginger beer - what microorganism was used to make the ginger beer?
yeast
ginger beer - why did the liquid have to be be left for a few days to turn into beer?
time to ferment/respire
ginger beer - what process was happening while being made?
fermentation/anaerobic respiration (respiration with oxygen)
What waste chemical is produced in anaerobic respiration in animals?
lactic acid
Name the microorganism that is used to make wine from grape juice.
yeast
Name the organism that is usually used to produce ethanol from plant material.
yeast
What is the scientific name for the process in which milk or beer is heated to kill any harmful microorganisms?
pasteurisation
What substance, apart from yeast, is needed to make ethanol by fermentation?
glucose
how is aerobic respuration used in the process of making bread
word equation for anaerobic respiration
glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide
word equation for anaaerobic respiration
glucose — ethanol + carbon dioxide
