the juice where they then digest the sugar into smaller particles which they absorb into their cells which produces carbon dioxide and ATP(energy). The yeast are then able to use the ATP to do aerobic respiration which produces carbon dioxide and water. The yeast will also start to use the ATP to reproduce by budding. Once the yeast population has grown to such a point that all the oxygen will run out, once this happens the yeast will switch from aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration (fermentation)
