From what I know, there's no yeast.

Also, there may be magnification, etc.

If anyone knows anything more, please do tell.

My eXam is on the 22nd. . .

well i dont have any idea wat might come
but the questions for the experiment are alike each year
so just see june 09
dont worry if u *censored* things up in the exp. cuz the results have lik a mark or so.
marks are on the table, units, the graph,
questions that come every exam
1.what are the most significant errors?
2.how to improve the exp./or make results more reliable and how to make results more accurate
3.calculate average
4.why did the student discard a result?(cuz the result was anomalous)
5.whats the smallest the division, and whats the uncertinaty of a device(its +-half of the smallest divison)?
6.n a question about whether the experimental data support a hypothesis(given by the examiner)
DONT ANSWER A QUESTION TILL U KNOW IF THE EXAMINER IS ASKING ABOUT THE EXP. U DID OR ANOTHER ON HE/SHE GAVE!!!!
GOOD LUCK(dont forget to see the exams of june09)
when is ur exam?
