Excerpt from Ogilvie's Book for a Cook: A Selection of Recipes and Other Things Adapted to the Needs of the Average Housekeeper, Some Entirely New, and All Have Been Thoroughly Tested

For rapid growth it requires a moderately warm moist, sweet, soil such as dough. Sugar hastens the growth, while salt retards it. During its growth it changes some of the starch of the flour into sugar, on which it feeds, at the same time giving off alco hol, and a gas known as Carbon dioxide.

This, in its efforts to escape, expands the elastic gluten (which is a large constituent of flour) and lifts up the dough, or in other words it is raised.
