Answer:

A) Alcoholic fermentation

Step-by-step explanation:

This type of fermentation releases carbon dioxide from the pyruvate, which is converted to the two-carbon compound acetaldehyde. In the second step, acetaldehyde is reduced by NADH to ethanol. This regenerates the supply of NAD+ needed for the continuation of glycolysis. Many bacteria carry out alcohol fermentation under anaerobic conditions. The CO2 bubbles generated by baker's yeast during alcohol fermentation allow bread to rise.

a. alcoholic fermentation

the dough rises when bread is baked because of the yeast in it. the yeast uses glycolysis and alcohol fermentation to break down sugars in the dough. the yeast releases alcohol and carbon dioxide as a waste product. the carbon dioxide gas causes the bread to rise.
