The correct option is DPulled up appearance of dough is due to production of CO2 During the process of fermentation in the dough, the bacteria and yeast, convert carbohydrates to carbon dioxide resulting in the formation of gas bubbles. The gas bubbles expand inside the dough making it appear larger, which is called leavening.
So the correct option is 'Pulled up appearance of dough is due to production of CO2'
