Water is not fermented.” The outcome of my experiment did not support my hypothesis. The results showed glucose did ferment the easiest‚ but it was followed by sucrose as opposed to fructose‚ fructose was after sucrose then the starch. Luckily‚ my test control did work as expected. This experiment proved that yeast depends on glucose as its’ main source of energy. This happens when glucose is reduced to pyruvate which leads to the fermentation

Fruits with high fructose levels tend to be sweeter whereas fruits with high levels of acid tend to be sour. Oranges however‚ have equal quantities of fructose and acids‚ leaving the taste a mystery. Raw fruits contain more acid but when ripened the acid decreases and the amount of sugar increases. Fruits such as bananas contain starch but gets converts to fructose when ripened
