You should briefly review past research on the problem with<\/div>\n<div>enough background information to orient the reader (this is usually accomplished by a literature<\/div>\n<div>search of published, peer-reviewed, primary materials). The background information included<\/div>\n<div>must be appropriately referenced (see the section on how to cite references).<\/div>\n<div>Think of the Introduction as a funnel. Start by stating a very broad topic,<\/div>\n<div>problem, area of study, etc. You might first discuss the general problem or theory<\/div>\n<div>pertaining to the problem you are studying. From this broad introduction, focus down to<\/div>\n<div>your specific research topic and project.<\/div>\n<div>The final paragraph of your introduction should include a statement of the<\/div>\n<div>hypothesis you have investigated and your predictions. A hypothesis is a broad<\/div>\n<div>general statement of causality for a biological pattern or observation. It is usually a good<\/div>\n<div>4<\/div>\n<div>idea to start a sentence in this paragraph with \u201cWe hypothesized that x affects y&#8230;\u201d or \u201cIt<\/div>\n<div>was hypothesized that x affects y&#8230;\u201d The hypothesis is usually non-directional and<\/div>\n<div>usually states a general \u201ceffect\u201d and not that something \u201cincreases\u201d or \u201cdecreases.\u201d Also<\/div>\n<div>include specific prediction statements. A prediction is usually directional, i.e. \u201cWe<\/div>\n<div>predicted that if x (increased\/decreased)&#8230; ., then y would (increase\/decrease)&#8230;\u201d State<\/div>\n<div>the specific question(s) you are attempting to answer, a brief introduction\/justification of<\/div>\n<div>the general method used, and how your investigation will help clarify or expand the<\/div>\n<div>knowledge in the general area.<\/div>\n<div>Methods<\/div>\n<div>In this section, you explain the type of data gathered or the experiment in sufficient detail<\/div>\n<div>that it could be repeated. Avoid unnecessary details and include only information that is<\/div>\n<div>necessary to complete the experiment or gather the data. The experimental design, apparatus,<\/div>\n<div>procedures of gathering and analyzing data, types of control, etc., should be described. If<\/div>\n<div>standard procedures are used, cite the reference and describe only the modifications made (if<\/div>\n<div>any).<\/div>\n<div>When experiments are conducted outdoors, you should describe the factors that may<\/div>\n<div>influence the results of the investigation such as location of the study site, the weather, etc. If<\/div>\n<div>any specimens were collected for the investigation, you should state how, where and when that<\/div>\n<div>material was collected. Photographs, maps, and diagrams (all presented as figures) can be used<\/div>\n<div>as an aid in describing the experimental procedures.<\/div>\n<div>Write the Methods section in the past tense. It should not be written as if it were directions<\/div>\n<div>in a laboratory manual; therefore, do not make a list of materials, do not give instructions on<\/div>\n<div>how to do something, and do not recount your methods as a sequence of events. Rather, you<\/div>\n<div>should focus on the experimental design.<\/div>\n<div>For example, do not write:<\/div>\n<div>For this experiment you will need the following equipment: six petri plates, one liter of agar, and one<\/div>\n<div>inoculating loop. First pour agar into the six petri plates, then inoculate the plates with a fungus using the<\/div>\n<div>inoculating loop. Then you put the plates into the incubator.<\/div>\n<div>An acceptable manner to convey the same idea as above is:<\/div>\n<div>Six petri plates were prepared with agar, inoculated with an inoculating loop, and placed in the incubator<\/div>\n<div>for ten hours at 37oC.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SOURCES PROVIDED &#8211; lab related is provided Introduction The Introduction concisely describes the purpose of the investigation and should tell the reader why this work was done.
