    single-celled fungus used in fermentation and sometimes causes infections

    Yeast is a type of single-celled fungus that is commonly used in baking and brewing because it ferments sugars to produce carbon dioxide and alcohol. In a biological context, certain species of yeast, such as *Candida*, can also live on the skin and mucous membranes, sometimes causing infections if they grow excessively.
