Adding the inhibitor to the yeast cells in the petri dish would likely cause an increase oxygen usage by the cell.

HOW DO YEAST RESPIRE?

  • Yeast are unicellular organisms that belong to the kingdom Fungi. Yeasts are capable of respiring anaerobically i.e. can respire without oxygen.

  • Yeast can, however, respire both aerobically and anaerobically. Yeast undergoes an anaerobic respiration called FERMENTATION, which is used to produce ethanol (alcohol) from pyruvate (product of glycolysis).

  • If a substance that inhibits the conversion of pyruvate to ethanol is added to yeast cells growing in a petri dish, the process of fermentation will be inhibited. Hence, the yeast cells will have to switch to aerobic respiration and make use of oxygen.

Therefore, adding the inhibitor to the yeast cells in the petri dish would likely cause an increase oxygen usage by the cell.
