In my opinion, the experiment is just fine and I was actually impressed with how easy and elegant it was.

I guess I was expecting more information from what was going on behind the scene genetically. Like during the first stage of the experiment when the heavier yeast fell to the bottom presumably they were bi-cellular, was this an actual mutation taken place or
alleles? And in the one of the final stages of the experiment those multi-cellular grouping (when they shook the vial some fell apart and the strong bounded multi-cellular yeast remain those other that fell apart) those that were loosely bound, was there specialization going on within the loosely bound multi-cellular group, because if there was why was there a specialization before a strong cellular bound that would keep them together as a multi-cellular organism?
