Biology Homework assignment paper

Instructions for Extra Credit Paper for Biology 100-2015
1. The paper will be evaluated based on your presentation of your research question. I am interested in your thinking about the question you are addressing-not just the facts. It is meant to be a critical evaluation by you.
2. Specifics:
7pages,doublespaced,
10 references- three of which have to be refereed papers. This means
that these three have to have been found in scientific journals. I realize that this might be difficult reading but read the paper and get the major points. The other seven can be web sites, national geographic, Discovery, NY times, etc. I am not concerned about what style you use.
Flow Diagram( critical) If you do not have this aspect you will get no (zero) credit. The flow diagram can be of some specific aspect of the phenomenon that you are studying . It does not have to be of the entire paper. The flow diagram demonstrates the step by step process of some mechanism that you are discussing. You do not need a special program. Just do it on paper and scan it. This page does not count toward your total page number of 7 pages. Next part(critical). Explain the flow diagram. Do not just do it..but tell me what it is explaining. Have that explanation as a caption underneath the image. You can explain it as well in the main part of the paper.
Feedback loops(critical) If you do not have this aspect, you will get no(nada) credit. The feedback loop can be of any aspect of the phenomenon that you are discussing. The feedback loop is shown in module 1 and you are aware of all its components. You do not need a special program for drawing the feedback loop. Just do it on paper, scan it and place it in your document. This page does not count toward your total page number of 7 pages. Next part(critical) explain the feedback loop. It can be either positive or negative. But explain it. Have that explanation as a caption underneath the image. You can explain it as well in the main part of the paper.
