nucleotides.
GPT-4o mini
The correct answer is **dehydration synthesis**. This process involves the bonding of glucose molecules together with the release of a water molecule.
By which process does yeast produce the carbon dioxide responsible for bread rising?(1 point)
Responses

glycolysis
glycolysis

dehydration synthesis.
dehydration synthesis.

photosynthesis
photosynthesis

cellular respiration
GPT-4o mini
The correct answer is **glycolysis**. During glycolysis, yeast breaks down glucose to produce energy, and this process also generates carbon dioxide as a byproduct, which is responsible for the bread rising. Additionally, in the absence of oxygen, yeast undergoes alcoholic fermentation, which further contributes to carbon dioxide production.
What is a component of amino acid not contained in starch?(1 point)
Responses

Oxygen.
Oxygen.

Nitrogen.
Nitrogen.

Carbon.
Carbon.

Hydrogen.
GPT-4o mini
The correct answer is **Nitrogen**. Amino acids contain nitrogen in their structure, which is not found in starch. Starch is composed of glucose units, which contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Carbon from glucose is essential for the formation of amino acids. Which process is responsible for the production of glucose in plants?(1 point)
Responses

glycolysis
glycolysis

dehydration synthesis
dehydration synthesis

citric acid cycle
citric acid cycle

photosynthesis
photosynthesis
GPT-4o mini
The correct answer is **photosynthesis**. This is the process by which plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight.
