?
What does FERMENTATION mean?
Anaerobic respiration in the yeast
1 of 10
Why, In a school lab, should microbes not be cultured at 30 degrees C?
Manufacture pathogens harmful to human health
2 of 10
What is the scientific name for mycoprotein?
Fusarium

What is an ADVANTAGE of using ethanol based fuels?
It is Carbon Neutral
4 of 10
What is the correct temperature to grow microbes in a school lab?
25*C

Explain why yeast is used in bread production?
The aerobic respiration enables the bread to rise because of Carbon dioxide
6 of 10
What is the point of a water cooling jacket in a fermenter?

Great quiz! :) although i think fermentation is aneorobic..?

Agree with the above.

i also agree its aneorobic

It is anaerobic, and in a fermenter I thought it was microorganisms, not enzymes, that would be killed by overheating. Nice quiz :)

I agree. I liked the quiz itself, but there were a few mistakes about. :) x
