Yeast Lab - Cheddar Cheese Bread

Cellular Respiration

O2 + C6H12O6 -> CO2 + ATP + H2O

Happens in the Mitochondria

This makes CO2 which makes the bread rise

The wheat is doing photosynthesis then that glucose goes into the the mitochondria where it does cellular respiration

Anaerobic Respiration vs Aerobic Respiration

Yeast does alcoholic fermentation which is a form of anaerobic respiration and humans do both in Lactic acid fermentation and also does aerobic respiration.

Yeast uses alcoholic fermentation which is anaerobic respiration and this creates the CO2 to make the bread rise.

CO2 Cycle

Making bread falls into the cellular respiration part of the cycle because if does anaerobic respiration and releases CO2

Recipe

1 ½ cups of flour

½ cup of water

1 ⅛ cup of yeast

1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil

Pinch of cheddar cheese

Overall this recipe of putting in about the same amount of fat and sugar in as we did flour and a small amount of salt worked really well although it was a little doughy in some spots but if u put butter on the bread it was really good bread.
