Question
A food stall owner was preparing dough for making bhaturas. He added a pinch of yeast and sugar to the dough and left it in a warm place. After few hours, the dough had risen. There was a sour smell too.

Solution
At low temperatures, yeasts will not multiply and respire because of which the dough will not rise and will not become sour which is required for making bhaturas.
