Students hypothesized that adding lactose to a sixth test tube would produce the greatest amount of carbon dioxide.

This is because lactose is a sugar molecule that is the food source for the yeast.

Fermentation is a metabolic pathway that occurs anaerobically, meaning in the absence of oxygen (O2). It includes the process of glycolysis with some extra reactions which make alcohol.
