The sugars to be tested are fructose‚ galactose‚ glucose‚ lactose and sucrose. Their effects on the respiration rate of yeast to be observed through the measurement (cm3) of the displaced water‚ which will tell us how much CO2 has been respired over 2 minutes. To compare the effects an average will be calculated for each and a result will be drawn
