How does fermenation happen?

Answer 1

The process of fermentation in wine is the catalyst function that turns Grape Juice into an alcoholic beverage. During fermentation yeast interact with sugars in the juice to create ethanol, commonly known as ethyl alcohol, and carbon dioxide (as a by-product). In winemaking the temperature and speed of fermentation is an important consideration as well as the levels of oxygen present in the must at the start of the fermentation.

Fermentation in food processing typically refers to the conversion of sugar to alcohol using yeast under anaerobic conditions. A more general definition of fermentation is the chemical conversion of carbohydrates into alcohols or acids.

Fermentation is the process of deriving energy from the oxidation of organic compounds, such as carbohydrates, using an endogenous electron acceptor, which is usually an organic compound.

Answer 2

Fermentation is a metabolic process in which microorganisms, like yeast or bacteria, convert sugars into alcohol or acids in the absence of oxygen. This process produces energy for the microorganisms and is used in food production to create products like bread, yogurt, and beer. Temperature, pH, and the specific microorganism involved all play a role in the fermentation process.

Answer 3

Femntation is a common example of biotechnology and it is carried out by mico-organisms (yeast).
