Yeast Respiration in Sugar

Honors Biology lab about yeast respiration. The balloons are capturing the waste product of carbon dioxide that comes from the reaction of the yeast breaking down the sugar. Glucose, sucrose, fructose, lactose, and sucralose were tested. (In their respective beakers from right to left) Sucrose (second from right) reacted the most.

@MrChrill7 it would probably be as safe as REGULAR co2 -.-.. yanno its CO2. it dosent change its ALWAYS gonna be CO2 co2 = co2 always. if somthin changes its not co2

wow 

[MrChrill7]

hello, how much yeast did you put in compared to sugar, and also would this co2 be safe to breathe?

@ShaunGooProductions Thank you!

@TheBammer: Are you an ignorent teen? Touching the balloons has no effect on the experiment. They aren't measuring any values, it's just to see which type of sugar produces the most CO^2. It gives you a visual result, meaning the Sucrose was the most efficient (easiest) for the yeast to break down.

@HariXretro Becuase in an experiment everything has to be the same, duhh.

@TheBammer78 i dont see how that would fuck up the experiment ?

[TheBammer78]

first off you fucked up the experiment by touching some balloons more then others at the beginning... unless it was intentional which i highly doubt

[regiefantastico]

I am doing research on this, i did it in my experiment in school

[manningmen]

Thats really cool
