    Fermentation Experiment

    1) This experiment demonstrates cellular respiration in yeast through fermentation. Yeast consumes sugar and releases carbon dioxide gas, which is observed through balloons placed over bottles containing yeast, sugar, and water mixtures. 2) More sugar provided leads to more carbon dioxide production, with the bottle containing 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar producing the largest amount of gas as seen in the inflated balloon. 3) Fermentation is a type of cellular respiration that yeast performs to break down sugar and release carbon dioxide gas without the use of oxygen.

    ACTIVITY 2: Cellular Respiration (Fermentation)

    Introduction: Have you ever wondered how the “holes” in bread are made? Yeast makes tiny gas
    bubbles in our in bread before it gets baked. This experiment demonstrates cellular respiration when the
    yeast consumes the sugar and releases carbon dioxide.

    Objective: To be able to produce carbon dioxide using yeast.

    Materials:
    • 4 plastic/glass bottles • 4 balloons
    • Sugar • Cup
    • Yeast • 1 tablespoon • hot water

    Procedure:

    1. Label the 4 bottles from 1 to 4.


    2. Add 1 tablespoon of yeast in each bottles
    3. Add no sugar in bottle 1, add ½ tablespoon of sugar in bottle 2, 1 tablespoon in bottle 3, and 1 ½
    tablespoon in bottle 4
    4. Add 1 cup of hot water in each bottle
    5. With all the ingredients in each bottle gently shake the mixtures.
    6. Cover the bottles using the balloon and observe for few hours.

    Guide Questions:

    1. Which of the 4 bottles produced large amount of gas?


    2. How do you know that this bottle produces large amount of gas?
    3. What is your implication in doing the activity?
    4. What type of respiration is fermentation?
    5. What factors do you think will affect the rate of fermentation?

    Documentations:
     Take a picture of the steps as you perform the activity. And paste them here ate least 3
    pictures will do.
