What is yeast? Why is it a widely used microbe in food industrial microbiology? What characteristics does it have that makes it a beneficial microbe for wine, bread, juices, and the like? Enumerate the processes it undergoes, products it produces, and interactions with other microbes it has. Provide an example of a food product that makes use of yeast, and how yeast is involved in that production process

What statement correctly explains why moist-heat is more effective than dry-heat for sterilization purposes? The microbe's molecules are resistant to alteration in the absence of water. Dry heat will always be a lower temperature than moist heat. Dry heat dehydrates the microbes, and dehydration is a method of preserving microbes. Water is a good conductor of heat.
