The yeast feed on sugar/carbohydrates and their byproducts are Co2 and alcohol. Co2 is in its gaseous state and therefore bubbles out of the solution. Ethanol alcohol stays in the solution. Ethanol alcohol and Co2 are toxic to yeast just like humanities byproducts are toxic to us. So, when beginning a fermentation process the yeast begin feeding on the sugar or carbohydrates and because there is a large supply of food, the yeast population increases. The production of Co2 increases with increasing yeast population. The population of yeast reach a maximum and then their growth begins to be halted by a lack of nutrients and the amount of toxins (alcohol) in there world. The production slows and then stops when there is no more food for the yeast to eat on and/or the amount of alcohol has reached a level at which yeast cannot continue to live in.
Yeast fermentation stops producing carbon dioxide when either all the available sugars have been consumed or when environmental conditions become unfavorable for yeast growth, such as high alcohol concentrations or low temperatures.
Humans cannot respire anerobically however, during stressed instances such as excessive running where not enough oxygen is entering the body, glucose can be broken down in the absence of oxygen forming lactic acid which is the reason why you feel a burning sensation after a long sprint/jog. Eventually when you stop and start your regular paced breathing, the oxygen debt is paid and lactic acid concentrations decline.
Well, fermentation is the process of obtaining energy from food without oxygen. Most single-celled organisms such as bacteria and protists use fermentation, seeing as they live where there is no oxygen, like under the ocean or in mud. For this question, there are technically two answers, on account of there being two types of fermentation. The first type of fermentation is Alcoholic Fermentation. This type of fermentation occurs in yeast and other single celled organisms. This process is called alcoholic fermentation because alcohol is one of the producs produced. When the organism breaks down the suger of the food it eats, alcohol is produced, which is useful to bakers and brewers. The other type of fermentation is Lactic-Acid Fermentation. You have most likely felt it's effects many times. Think about a time when you ran for a very long time and as fast as you could. While running you are breathing quickly, because your cells need more energy for you to keep going. Eventually you get tired and have to stop, but no matter how hard you breathe, the muscle cells in your body used up oxygen faster then it could be replaced. Therefore, lactic-acid fermentation occured. The main product of this type of fermentation is lactic-acid, and when it builds up, you feel a painful sensation in your muscles, and they become weak and sore. Hope this helps!
Excess sugar produces a very negative water potential and this causes water to move out of the yeast cells into the sugar solution (by osmosis)- the cells become dehydrated, they do not have enough water for cell growth (yeast cells are usually 90% water).
The movement to stop or reduce alcohol consumption is known as the sober movement. It focuses on promoting a lifestyle free from alcohol, encouraging sobriety, and providing support for those looking to reduce or eliminate their alcohol intake. This movement aims to raise awareness about the potential negative impacts of alcohol on individuals and society.
Fermentation will slow down and eventually stop once the yeast runs out of fermentable sugars to consume or when the alcohol content becomes too high for the yeast to survive. The specific timing can vary depending on the type of fermentation and the conditions in which it is taking place.
Yes, you can add sugar to your wine or cider in small amounts. At some point the yeast will produce enough alcohol to kill themselves, Around 13-14% ABV. At that point you're no longer feeding the yeast, your sweetening your brew. When the yeast bubbles slow and or stop, stop adding sugar.
In Spain, they added a little brandy to kill the yeast and stop the fermentation. Now the use of campden tablets or sulfuric dioxide will kill the yeast. If it becomes too dry, which is what will happen if you do not stop the fermentation, and you add sugar to make the taste better, it will keep fermenting until you stop the yeast. The yeast will keep going until all the sugar is digested by the yeast and leaves alcohol as the by product. So, by adding alcohol to your fermentation before it is finished fermenting will raise the alcohol level high enough to effectively kill off the yeast at the desired taste level. I don't drink, but I was taught how to do this.
a campaign to stop the drinking of alcohol
Yes, alcohol metabolism does not stop when you sleep, but it may slow down slightly due to decreased activity levels.
Yeast fermentation stops producing carbon dioxide when either all the available sugars have been consumed or when environmental conditions become unfavorable for yeast growth, such as high alcohol concentrations or low temperatures.
stop giving it water and/or food yeast will also kill itself by fermentation; in a closed system the yeast will consume all it's food resources and produce enough alcohol to kill all the yeast cells.

how to stop them from drinking alcohol
yeast
Chemicals that can kill yeast include bleach, hydrogen peroxide, and strong acids such as sulfuric acid. These chemicals disrupt the yeast cell wall and lead to cell death. It's important to handle these chemicals with caution and follow safety guidelines when using them.
Yes. Stress will stop or slow egg production. The introduction of new flock mates or a new rooster will cause this.
