Copper and Copper Alloys. COPPER and its alloys constitute one of the major groups of commercial metals. They are widely used because of their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, outstanding resistance to corrosion, and ease of fabrication, together with good strength and fatigue resistance. They are generally nonmagnetic.
Yeast is a fungus and needs a supply of energy for its living and growth. Sugar supplies this energy. (Your body also gets much of its energy from sugar and other carbohydrates.). Yeast can use oxygen to release the energy from sugar (like you can) in the process called respiration.So, the more sugar there is, the more active the yeast will be and the faster its growth (up to a certain point-even yeast cannot grow in very strong sugar-such as honey).ugar supplies this energy. (Your body also gets much of its energy from sugar and other carbohydrates.). Yeast can use oxygen to release the energy from sugar (like you can) in the process called respiration.
Figure 7-23Fermentation in yeast produces ethyl alcohol. The carbon dioxide that isreleased during fermentation creates bubbles and pockets that make breadrise. The alcohol evaporates during baking. There are also fungi and bacteria that produce lactic acid duringfermentation, just as your muscle cells do.Humans use these microbes totransform milk into cheese and yogurt.hen yeast cells are kept in ananaerobic environmentâan environment without oxygenâthey areforced to ferment sugar and other foods. In contrast to fermentation inyour muscle cells, fermentation in yeast produces alcohol, instead oflactic acid, as a waste product (Figure 7-23).
