Yeast consumes carbohydrates (sugars and more complex carbohydrates such as starch found in grains). Yeast produces alcohol and carbon dioxide (gas) Gluten (a protein found in abundance in wheat and to a lesser degree in many other grains) creates structures that the carbon dioxide cannot penetrate and thus forms bubbles inside the loaf of rising bread. These bubbles remain as the spongy texture of bread.

When a liquid of any kind comes in contact with the baking soda it releases the carbon dioxide which makes the bread rise since the chemical reaction creates air bubbles.
