Which mechanism limits ethanol production in fermentation vats?

💡 Explanation

Product inhibition slows production because high ethanol concentrations reduce the *catalytic efficiency* of yeast enzymes. This lowers the reaction rate, therefore, leading to decreased productivity rather than, say, cell death or substrate limitation at industrially practiced conditions.
