MIlk is converted to yogurt under certain conditions when the microorganisms in the milk produce acid what process would you expect to be key in the production of yogurt?

The key process in the production of yogurt is fermentation. During fermentation, microorganisms such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus convert the lactose in milk into lactic acid, which causes the milk proteins to coagulate and give yogurt its characteristic tangy flavor and thick texture.


How the bacteria useful for humans?

Bacteria are useful to us in many ways.For example,Lactobacillus,often called Lactic acid bacteria,helps in the curdling of milk.It helps in absorbing vitamin B12i.e Cyanocobalamine in the gut.Bacillus thurungiensis(BT),is a bio insecticide which helps in preventing the catterpillar larva from spoiling the plant.When the larva feeds on the plant,this bacteria enters it & releases toxins in the gut of the larva,by which the larva dies.They also help in decomposing organic matter.In mining these bacteria are used to detect the metals present in the earth's layers,by which about 50% mining cost is reduced.They are also useful in many other ways such as studying upper layers of atmosphere(exo microbiology),Staining reactions,in producing anti biotics such as PENCILLIN(pencillium notatum) and STREPTOMYCIN(streptomyecin greisius).............etc.


Is lactic acid bad for us?

Everyone who has even thought about exercising has heard the warnings about lactic acid. It builds up in your muscles. It is what makes your muscles burn. Its buildup is what makes your muscles tire and give out. Coaches and personal trainers tell athletes and exercisers that they have to learn to work out at just below their "lactic threshold," that point of diminishing returns when lactic acid starts to accumulate. Some athletes even have blood tests to find their personal lactic thresholds. But that, it turns out, is all wrong. Lactic acid is actually a fuel, not a caustic waste product. Muscles make it deliberately, producing it from glucose, and they burn it to obtain energy. The reason trained athletes can perform so hard and so long is because their intense training causes their muscles to adapt so they more readily and efficiently absorb lactic acid.


What do all acids end with?

I belive it is -ate. Lactic Acid -- Lactate Pyruvic Acid - Pyruvate Carbonic Acid -- Carbonate By the way, I am by no means an expert, I am still a student. I am learning about cellular respiration and fermentation which has lactic acid and pyruvic acid in it. And both can also be called with lactate and pyruvate. My textbook does so and my teacher subtly said this was true. I don't know yet because we have a graded lab on it, so afterwards she will be able to tell us.


How bacteria useful to us?

Bacteria help to break down and decay material organic materials. They also aid with digestion inside of the body, and help to keep fungus in check.


Why is yogurt more sour than milk?

Just about all good-quality yoghurts should fit that description. As a rule of thumb, check the label for additives and only buy plain, unflavoured yoghurt: it's much nicer, if you need flavourings, to add your own.

How is bacteria used to make yogurt?

Yogurt is made by inoculating certain bacteria Streptococcus thermophilus andLactobacillus bulgaricus, into milk This is called - starter culture. You can make it at home, if you place a tablesppon of yogurt in a glass of milk, the bacteria will reproduce and spread through the milk, and within 6 to 12 hours, transform the milk to yogurt. But yogurt cultures are "fussy" -- the milk must be boiled first in order to remove any competing bacteria and then cooled to a lukewarm temperature so that the yogurt bacteria won't be killed by high heat. You could also use sterile powdered milk, or a combination of the two (boiled and sterile).


What cause us to breathe?

Lack of oxygen in the cells. Cellular respiration requires oxygen. Without oxygen, the cells acquire the energy they need from lactic acid fermentation. (This is the cause of muscle pain after workouts).


What is the source of ethonic acid?

If you mean "ethanoic acid", then it's the same thing as acetic acid (vinegar). Acetic acid is commonly produced as an organic acid in living organisms (including us).


Are bacteria microbes?

Yes, bacteria are a type of microbe. Microbes are microscopic organisms that include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protists. Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that can be found in various environments and play important roles in the ecosystem.


What micoorgansims are benifical?

There are so many microorganisms found in the earth which are very much beneficial to us. some are beneficial for the fermantation of food,some are beneficial to human body , some are beneficial to grow plants and so on. 1. Yeasts and lactic acid bacteria are useful for fermantation of food. Yeast and acitic acid bacteria are helpful for the fermantation of wine. Yeasts are also used for making bread. Soya sauce,miso and tempeh preparation also needs microorganism for fermantation. Rhizopus oligosporus is used for preparation for tempeh. 2. Microorganisms are also beneficial for environment as carbon and nitrogen recycle.Nitrifying(nitrosomonas) bacteria is needed to nitrogen cycle so that it can enter to the food chains. 3.Bacteria, fungi, moulds, protozoa and other saprophytic organisms are use ful for decomposition of waste products. 4. fungi and bacteria are used for preparation of most pharmaceutical products. 5. Billions of microorganism are beneficial for human digestive process.thse are mostly known as microflora, or gut flora. The gut flora is beneficial to produce vitamin 'K'. Vitamin K is essantial for blood clotting. Thus a long lists of microorganisms can be made which are beneficial to us.
