Yeast are single-celled fungi that are fundamentally important in both nature and human industry. There are hundreds of species of yeast, with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, commonly known as baker’s or brewer’s yeast, being among the most well-known due to its role in baking, brewing, and winemaking. Yeast cells are typically oval to round and can reproduce asexually through a process called budding. In nature, yeasts are primarily found on plants, fruits, and in the soil, playing a vital role in decomposition and nutrient cycling.
