Baking powder lightens the texture of cakes by enlarging air bubbles within the batter. The correct use of baking powder makes the difference between a light and fluffy cake.Baking powder has different, beneficial properties for cake baking that other types of leavening agents don't have. Yeast produces the same rising action, but takes two to three hours to produce bubbles. Baking powder reacts with water, whereas baking soda requires the use of a liquid acid such as buttermilk or yogurt to instigate leavening.
Baking powder and salt.
Baking soda helps muffins rise by reacting with acid in the batter to create carbon dioxide gas, which expands and makes the muffins light and fluffy. It also helps with browning and contributes to the overall texture of the muffins.
Baking is a chemical process.

Many baked goods that are not raised with yeast contain baking power; some of the most common are biscuits, muffins (USA), cookies, quick breads, cakes and crackers.
You do if you want them to rise properly.
Muffins are a type of "quick bread," which uses baking powder or baking soda as leavening. Yeast requires an hour or more to raise dough or batter, and produces a different crumb than desired in (American) muffins.
They would not raise as much.
Conventional ovens and some toaster ovens can be used to bake muffins. You cannot use a microwave oven to bake regular muffins.
muffins. its all about the muffins son
You can get decent, mid-quality baking pans from just about any store (Wilton or Baker's Secret). It is not necessary to invest a small fortune in muffin tins. Usually the cost of baking trays makes little difference in how the muffins come out, however depth of the baking trays does matter - the deep ones result in far better shaped muffins. I got my baking trays from Tesco - they work just fine.
when using a self rising mix not much , when using a plain mix the muffins wont "rise"
