Answer 1

Difference in rate of respiration of various sugars

Explanation:

It will be observed that sucrose and sugar solutions are having the highest rates of respiration. The artificial sugars like Splenda, glu-cose, Equal follows sucrose and sugar solutions. among the artificial sugars, Splenda has a higher rate of respiration than the others.

Compared to an artificial sugar, sucrose seems to provide a good starting material for fermentation.

Among artificial sugars, Splenda which has a higher content of sucralose, maltodextrin and dextrose sugars can provide good starting material for the yeast cells undergo fermentation and cellular respiration.
