Alcoholic fermentation fermentation produces CO2 bubbles in baking.

Step-by-step explanation:

The other name given for the Alcoholic Fermentation is Ethanol fermentation. In this process of fermentation, ethanol and carbon dioxide are the resultant by-products. These are formed by the conversion of fructose,sucrose and glucose to cellular energy. This type of fermentation do not require oxygen for the process to take place. Hence, these are known to be an anaerobic process

This type of fermentation has its application like ethanol fuel production, cooking of bread, etc. A dough rises of the Ethanol fermentation. this is because, the sugars that are present in a dough are absorbed by yeast . this produces ethanol and carbon dioxide. During baking process,bubbles are formed by this carbon dioxide.
