Q: What type of gas is produced by alcoholic fermentation of the glucose in corn or other plants?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Have your parents ever put corn in the gas tank of their car? They did if they used gas containing ethanol. Ethanol is produced by alcoholic fermentation of the glucose in corn or other plants. This type of fermentation also explains why bread dough rises. Yeasts in bread dough use alcoholic fermentation and produce carbon dioxide gas. The gas forms bubbles in the dough, which cause the dough to expand. The bubbles also leave small holes in the bread after it bakes, making the bread light and fluffy. Do you see the small holes in the slice of bread in Figure below ?.

 Choices:

- methanol

- ethyl

- isopropyl

- ethanol


A:
ethanol
