Yeast makes bread rise, and gives it the air bubbles inside.
The term yeast refers to a group of a hundred or so single celled organisms collectively known as Saccharomyces, which are a type of fungi.
When you mix flour and yeast and dampen it, various things start to happen. In addition to the wheat's own enzymes, which begin to convert sugar into starch, the yeast cells produce several enzymes of their own, which convert the various sugars in flour into forms the yeast can absorb. This is how yeast feeds.
Most enzymes inside the yeast cell convert these sugars into carbon dioxide and alcohol, which are excreted. The carbon dioxide forms into bubbles in the dough and causes it to rise. This is fermentation (from the Latin fermo meaning 'to boil') This enzyme activity helps to make the tough gluten in the flour more digestible. Not surprisingly, bread that ferments for longer is better for you.
After feeding heartily and passing gas accordingly, the yeast's cells turn to reproduction, so it splits in two. From then on 2 becomes 4, 4 becomes 8 etc etc... meanwhile some of the excreted alcohol becomes acetic acid, which makes the dough slightly more acidic. Yeast likes that, and the activity increases because of it. All this noticeably raises the temperature of the dough.

Can traditional yeast be used the same as rapid rise?
Absolutely not. However, you may replace the yeast if you modify the way you prepare the recipe. Rapid rise yeast does not require as much rising and kneading as does traditional yeast. In fact, rapid rise yeast eliminates the need for the "first rise" that traditional yeast calls for. Therefore, if you replace rapid rise yeast with traditional yeast, you will have to let your dough rise, punch it down, and then form your bread (or whatever) and let it rise again before baking. Also, the proportions of yeast are different. Multiply the amount of rapid rise yeast by 1.25 for the equivalent of traditional yeast.
What yeast is used in bread?
quick rise or rapid rise yeast works it makes the bread rise faster
Why bread dough rises?
The yeast cells in bread dough ferment sugars and produce gas (carbon dioxide). This makes the dough rise.
What does yeast do in bread dough?
Baking yeast makes food rise and gives it a fluffy taste and feel to your food.
What are the differences between active dry yeast and rapid rise yeast, and how do they affect the baking process?
Active dry yeast and rapid rise yeast are two types of yeast used in baking. The main difference between them is that active dry yeast needs to be dissolved in water before use, while rapid rise yeast can be mixed directly into the dry ingredients. In terms of the baking process, active dry yeast typically requires a longer rise time compared to rapid rise yeast. This is because active dry yeast needs time to activate and ferment, resulting in a slower rise. On the other hand, rapid rise yeast contains additives that help it rise more quickly, making it ideal for recipes that require a shorter rise time. Overall, the choice between active dry yeast and rapid rise yeast depends on the recipe and the desired outcome. Active dry yeast is better suited for recipes that require a longer fermentation process, while rapid rise yeast is convenient for recipes that need a quicker rise.
What is the ingrediant in bread that makes it rise?
It's the yeast fermenting and respiring which produces carbon dioxide, causing the bread to rise
