The plastic gloves that are on top of the bottle inflate because when the yeast gets warm water and sugar, it is able to produce CO2 and energy. Since the CO2 has no place to go, it builds up pressure in the bottle and the easiest place for it to expand in is the top where the glove is. If the reaction works correctly, this is what allows the plastic glove to expand with carbon dioxide.
