Best Answer

Heat and warm water with some sugar activates yeast, almost like you're waking it up and feeding it. If the temperature too hot, you'll kill off the yeast and your break won't rise but if it's too cold you the yeast won't "wake up" and activate properly, so your break won't rise. You leave the dough in a warm spot after making the dough to give the yeast a chance to ferment the sugar in the dough and the carbon dioxide byproduct poofs it up.

The higher the heat the faster the expansion.

If it expands to fast or too much it will be airy and tough. If it expands to slowly or not enough it will be chewy.
