Subjectivity
Subjectivity refers to feelings, opinions, etc.
For example, in your discussion you might write,
"We felt that the fixative was bad, because we had difficulty finding
flagella on our Chlamydomonas." Another researcher is unlikely to risk
time and resources on the basis of your "feeling."
On the other hand, you might write, "The
percentage of cells with flagella was inversely proportional to the time they
spent in fixative, suggesting that the fixative was causing cells to shed
flagella." This is information that another scientist can use.
