Yeast produces the carbon dioxide responsible for bread rising through the process of **cellular respiration**. Specifically, in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic conditions), yeast undergoes alcoholic fermentation, which produces carbon dioxide and ethanol. This carbon dioxide gets trapped in the dough, causing it to rise.
