Baking powder is a chemical leavening agent that reacts with liquid and heat to create carbon dioxide gas, causing baked goods to rise. Yeast is a living organism that consumes sugars and produces carbon dioxide gas through fermentation, which also helps baked goods rise. Yeast requires time to ferment, while baking powder works quickly.

What is the difference between baking soda and baking powder and yeast?
Yeast, like baking soda (and baking powder), is used to leavened baked goods . The difference between these leavening agents is that baking powder/soda react chemically to produce the carbon dioxide that makes the baked goods rise. Yeast, on the other hand, is a living organism and the carbon dioxide it produces is the result of the yeast feeding on the dough. When yeast is used in baked goods it not only increases the volume but also improves the texture, grain and flavor of the bread.

Do yeast bread contains baking powder?
Neither baking soda nor baking powder is a yeast, but each is a leavening agent. In addition, baking powder contains cornstarch, which those who observe Passover strictly do not consume. It is correct to say that baking soda and baking powder both are not yeast as yeast is a living fungus. Yeast however is also a leavening agent. Baking soda is bicarbonate of soda or sodium bicarbonate and it's chemical compound formula is NaHCO3. Baking powder is a combination of bicarbonate of soda, corn starch, & usually 2 acids depending on the type of baking powder. Also those who observe Passover do not eat leavened bread, which is bread made without any leavening agent be it baking powder, baking soda, or yeast. Generally unleavened bread for passover is baked with a dough made of flour, water, & salt. (NO LEAVENING AGENT WHATSOEVER)
