Nothing. The yeast needs to be activated.

Sensible answer:

If the mixture is kept perfectly dry, not a lot.

Yeasts need moisture and a slightly acidic pH to activate.

The yeast works by digesting the sugars and starches in the mixture to make more more yeast (by reproduction) and carbon dioxide. this process is called fermentation and is the process by which alcohol is made.

It is important to understand that yeasts work better in warmer conditions than they do in cold conditions.

So if its warm and damp or moist it will start to ferment and give off carbon dioxide which is what makes bread and cakes rise.

However too high a temperature and the yeast is killed off.
