Research paper on Genetically Modified Salmon?

Question

I'm writing a paper on genetically modified salmon and I'm wondering how I should organize my paragraphs??

Answer 1

I'm not sure what grade/level you're paper is on, so I've included a few different links that may help you.

Here is a basic outline:

1. Introduction (Historical background)

2. Statement of the problem (Why are you doing this?)

3. Technical background (How far have others gotten on this problem?) Usually a historical account

4. Description of your analysis, development, or measurements (What have you done? How did you do it?)

.....................

.....................

..................... Supporting details

..................... (the bulk of your paper)

.....................

5. Results (What did you find out?)

6. Discussion and interpretation (What do your results mean and how do they relate to the stated problem?)

7. Conclusions and recommendations (What should be done next?)

This is only one way (mostly referred to as the "traditional approach") to write a scientific paper. There are others. Hopefully you can gain some ideas by sifting through the web links at the bottom of this Q&A.

I hope this helps get you started.

Good luck!
