What do you drink?
It is normally very healthy to drink water. Check with your class; what are the
drinking habits of the class when it comes to drinking water? Fill inn the relative
volume of each group, consumed by the class as a whole. Consider only the things you
drink, we don't take into consideration the water contained in your food because it
will be too complex. Remember that the total shall be 100%.

regulations on what you can do in the area. Can you find out what regulations
apply to your source?
