Kysymyksiä
Explanation:
If you are giving a lecture then you would normally say in English "any questions". In Finnish, you might say "onko kysymyksiä" i.e. are there any questions. Referring to your previous questions, the kysymykset alternative would mean "what are THE questions" which would be slightly odd as that would cover all [possible] questions.
