Yeast is a facultative anaerobe. This means that alcohol fermentation takes place only if: the temperature is close to 37°C the atmosphere does not contain oxygen sugar is provided to the cells light is provided to the cells
The proteobacteria in the genus Pseudomonas are important spoilers of food. The rate at which food spoils is dependent on temperature. The data in the Figure show the relationship between the square root of the growth rate (how fast the population is growing per day; unitless) and the temperature of the culture. Does typical refrigeration (temperature lowered to 4C) appear sufficient to limit growth rate compared to room temperature (20C)?
