The bubbles produced when yeast cells are placed in a glucose solution is because the yeast cells are carrying out respiration. The correction option would be B.
Yeast cells are able to carry out a type of respiration known as anaerobic respiration when placed in a suitable substrate medium like glucose. During this process energy in the form of ATP is generated in the absence of oxygen for the metabolism of the yeast cells. The equation of the reaction is as follows:
[tex]C_6H_1_2O_6 --->2 C_2H_5OH + 2 CO_2[/tex]
Thus, the carbon dioxide gas is released as bubbles in the solution as a result of respiration.
