Question

Please answer the following correctly:

i) Salt is often used as a food preservative to prevent bacterial and fungal growth (for example, in country ham). But salt is also important to enhance the flavor of bread when added in small amounts. At what concentration does salt begin to inhibit yeast fermentation?

j) Does the food preservative Na benzoate inhibit cellular respiration?

k) How do fermentation rates compare for baker's yeast (saccharomyces cerviside) and sourdough yeast, (candida milleri) in different pH environments?

l) How do fermentation rates compare for yeast used in brewing most beers (S. cervisiae) and lager (S. pastorianus - a hybrid between S. cervisiae and S.eubaymus)?

Definition Definition Set of metabolic processes and reactions that produce energy from organic substances such as glucose. Cellular respiration takes place in the organism’s cells, where the chemical energy from nutrients or molecules of oxygen is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration; in the absence of oxygen, it is called anaerobic respiration.
