Paper Title: The human heart: Form fits function
Here is my synopsis for my paper. “The average human body consists of at least seventy organs and over six hundred muscles. The life of these organs and muscles depends on one single organ no larger than a balled fist, the heart. The heart is the most important organ in the human body, and without it, there is no other way for a human to live. A human heart has the challenging task of pumping blood through the whole body, which provides oxygen and nutrients to all other organs. When a person is lying unconscious and not breathing, one of the first things a medical tech will do is check for a pulse and begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on the chest. CPR compressions mimic the heart’s job by maintaining blood circulation, which adds to the organ’s significance. The heart is an extraordinary organ with a lot of responsibility and surprisingly weighs no more than fifteen ounces. This paper covers all the functions of the heart, along with its physiology and significance.”
Synopsis Feedback from my teacher “Your title is not about CPR. You need to visit your focus. The word FORM should direct you to the structure of the heart and how this structure fits the job the heart does.”
Instructions from my teacher:
“The purpose of this REVIEW PAPER is to introduce students of General Biology to the art of literature survey and scientific writing. It aims to succinctly review recent progress in a particular topic. Overall, this paper should summarize the current state of knowledge of a chosen topic. It should create an understanding of the topic for the reader by discussing the findings presented in recent research papers. A review paper is not a “term paper” or book report. It is not merely a report on some references you found. Instead, a review paper synthesizes the results from several primary literature papers to produce a coherent argument about a topic or focused description of a field. The paper will be evaluated on the basis of substance, adherence to instructions, avoidance of plagiarism, and styles indicated in the syllabus.
This paper should be a review, 8 numbered pages long (i.e. including LITERATURE CITED). A title page and a table of contents must be included. These are not part of the 8 pages. It MUST BE TYPED, double spaced with 12 points font size and 1-inch margins, and must not be“right-justified”. Scientific names of microorganisms, plants, and animals must be italicized and written in accordance with the binomial system of nomenclature. Page numbers (pagination) must be inserted.
The Research Materials:
1.Should not be older than 6 years (i.e. 2015till 2020inclusive).
2.Should be preferably PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL ARTICLES. All utilized articles must be paraphrased(i.e. explained in your own words) to avoid plagiarism.
3.Should never be adopted internet articles meant for general public information since these are not peer-reviewed and cannot be authenticated.
4.ALL MATERIALS MUST have a recognizable author(s) name(s) cited within.
5.Could be textbooks WHICH WOULD BE USED FOR BACKGROUND INFORMATION. If textbooks are used, no more than one of them may be cited in-text or listed in the literature cited section.
6.Dictionaries are not scientific research materials and are not acceptable.
7.Should never include press reports or historical narratives (Newspapers and magazines).
8.Religious books are NOT ACCEPTED
9.At least eight (8) reference materials must be consulted and listed accordingly in the Literature Cited section.
