Solution

The correct option is B Carbon dioxide gas released during respiration of yeast


Yeast reproduces rapidly and produces carbon dioxide during respiration. Bubbles of the gas fill the dough and increase its volume. This is the basis of the use of yeast in the baking industry for making breads, pastries and cakes. It is used to make the dough rise.
