It's a fungi and doesn't have chloroplasts, therefore it can't photosynthesise.

No, then it would absorb carbon dioxide, in stead of producing it! It has no 'green plants' (=chlorophyl) properties at all.

Does pleurococcus photosynthesise?

yes, anoxic photosynthesis


Do bakers yeast reproduce sexually or asexually or both?

Yeast can reproduce in two ways. One is when a single cell splits into two child cells. This also occurs in bacterial. The other way is when an outgrowth is formed, the nucleus divides and the new nucleus migrates to this outgrowth and splits off.


How do saccharomyces move?

Yeast cells are a type of eukaryote cell. They do not move in the normal sense but expand to change positions and travel on currents.


Does salt and yeast inflate a balloon?

Live yeast can be used to inflate a balloon if you give the yeast something to ferment (such as sugar). They then produce carbon dioxide as a waste product that could inflate a balloon. You should not expect it to be buoyant, however, for CO2 is heavy as gases go (considerably heavier than air, for instance). The yeast cannot use salt for much of anything, however.


In which of these does alcoholic fermentation occur?

Alcohol fermentation is done by yeast and some kinds of bacteria. These microorganisms convert sugars in ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide. Alcoholic fermentation begins after glucose enters the cell. The glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid. This pyruvic acid is then converted to CO2, ethanol, and energy for the cell. Humans have long taken advantage of this process in making bread, beer, and wine. In these three product the same microorganism is used: the common yeast or Saccharomyces Cerevisae.http://www.tempeh.info/fermentation/alcohol-fermentation.php
