alcohol
What is yeast?
It is a single-celled organism that feeds on glucose.
The three types of food energye are ___, ___, and ___.
sugars, starches, and cellulose
The three types of food energy are all called ___.
carbohydrates
What are the three types of simple sugars?
glucose, fructose, and galactose
Write out the chemcial equation for aerobic respiration, and label both sides.
reactants products
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6 H2O + energy
Write out the chemical equation for fermentation and label both sides.
reactants products
C6H12O6 + yeast → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + energy
