“Giving 10 cc instead of .1 cc”
A couple of decades ago and after a test in a “plant cell culture”
class, I heard a fellow grad student trying to get some “mercy”
on one test question.
I will always remember the professors blunt response:
“You calculated the concentration of that hormone at 10 times the
correct level. If you had been dealing with a human being and a drug
you’d probably have KILLED the patient!”
Those d-arned decimal places REALLY do matter!

Giving 10 cc instead of .1 ccActually, that would be giving 100cc, instead of .1cc - or 10cc, instead of .01cc
