Question
Please answer the following correctly:
i) Salt is often used as a food preservative to prevent bacterial and fungal growth (for example, in country ham). But salt is also important to enhance the flavor of bread when added in small amounts. At what concentration does salt begin to inhibit yeast fermentation?
j) Does the food preservative Na benzoate inhibit
k) How do fermentation rates compare for baker's yeast (saccharomyces cerviside) and sourdough yeast, (candida milleri) in different pH environments?
l) How do fermentation rates compare for yeast used in brewing most beers (S. cervisiae) and lager (S. pastorianus - a hybrid between S. cervisiae and S.eubaymus)?

- At first glance, the final steps in fermentation appear to be unnecessary: the generation of lactate or ethanol does not produce any additional energy for the cell. Explain why cells growing in the absence of oxygen could not simply discard pyruvate as a waste product.
