Yeast is a type of fungus that plays a key role in various biological and industrial processes. It is widely known for its use in baking, brewing, and fermentation.
Baking: Yeast is used as a leavening agent in bread and pastry production. It ferments sugars in the dough, producing carbon dioxide, which causes the dough to rise.
Brewing: Yeast is essential in the fermentation of sugars to produce alcohol in beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages.
Fermentation: Yeast is used in the industrial production of various products, including biofuels and pharmaceuticals, through fermentation processes.
