... • Let’s say that you want to know the lipid content of a typical corn grain. • You could analyze one grain, but how would you know that you’d picked a “typical” grain? • You’d get a better estimate of “typical” if you increased you sample size to a few hundred grain, or even to 10,000. Or to 1,000,0 ...
