Detailed explanation-1: -When the yeast get warm water and some food to eat (in the form of sugar), they will become active. And as they eat the sugar and break it down for food, they release carbon dioxide, which fills up the balloon. Yeast is actually a type of fungus related to mushrooms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most yeasts require an abundance of oxygen for growth, therefore by controlling the supply of oxygen, their growth can be checked. In addition to oxygen, they require a basic substrate such as sugar. Some yeasts can ferment sugars to alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of air but require oxygen for growth.
Detailed explanation-3: -You don’t need to dissolve active dry yeast in lukewarm water before using it. (Even though it still says you should dissolve it on the back of the yeast packet, if you buy your yeast in packets.)
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Yeast needs sugar and oxygen to grow. Yeast also needs the right temperature to grow. Air that is at room temperature or water that is slightly warm is needed to activate yeast.
