○ to make sure the yeast proceeds into “hibernation.”
○ to make sure the yeast “wakes up” from being dehydrated.

Explanation:

Dry - yeast is in a dehydrated state. Adding it to water and stirring helps it dissolve and become re - hydrated, which "wakes up" the dormant yeast cells, activating their metabolic processes. Stirring ensures even distribution and contact with water for proper activation. The other options are incorrect as stirring does not put yeast into hibernation, is not related to oxygen exposure recovery in this context, and yeast needs nutrients to make ATP.

Answer:

To make sure the yeast "wakes up" from being dehydrated.
