Literacy Paper
Topic: Complementarity of Structure & Function in the Digestive System
a.Using your textbook, journals, and sources provided by the library, explain how function (physiology) is dependent on structure(anatomy): How structure and function complement each other
b.Select Five (5) organs of the digestive system to effect your discussion
c.For Example, the stomach: the stomach is sac-like (that is bag-like = anatomy/structure) and it is composed mostly of muscle tissue (anatomy/structure); Because the stomach is sac-like, it can store food (physiology/function); because the stomach is made up of mostly muscle tissue it can mix food and transport food to the small intestine (movement) (physiology/function). Then you put relevant diagrams/illustrations here and quote or do a citation where you got this information from. Also indicate the source of your illustrations/diagrams.
d.You will need to include an illustration/diagram that demonstrates at least one aspect of the function selected
e.Repeat Steps C + D above for each of your 5 selections
General Guidelines
1.Title page = Page 1 = 1 page: Contains title of paper, your name, institution, course/code/section, semester/date, and Instructor name
2.Full References = Last page = 1 page: Fully references of citations in your essay are listed here. See attached below for the format.
3.Body of essay= maximum of 5 pages; font size = 11/12; Select a writing style of your choice
4.Your explanations/descriptions for each function and its illustration are all to be contained on 1-page; thus 5 functions/explanations = 5 pages
5.Total number of pages for paper = 1 + 5 + 1 = 7 pages
6.There must be at least one reference per function explained. See the below appended for proper in-paper citation; Online sources are not accepted as citations- see acceptable citations below
7.Use the Scientific Writing Format (see below)
8.Avoid copy-paste, for it is plagiarism = academic crime
9.Follow instructions
10.Your write up should be done as a Microsoft word document
11.Submission: On the due date hand your write to the Instructor in Class or Email your write up on the due date to : [email protected]
Dr. Matute
Scientific Citation
In scientific writing, we don’t cite references by using footnotes. Instead, citations including author’s last name and year are inserted directly into the text, like this (Kusnick, 1997). If there is more than one author, the citation might look like this (Kusnick and Waterstraat, 1996) or like this (Kusnick and others, 1995). If you use a reference more than once, you just insert the citation again (Kusnick, 1997). If you reference several authors in the same sentence, you can list them alphabetically within the same citation (Kusnick, 1997; Waterstraat, 1996). If an author has more than one citation in a single year, label them a, b,c, etc. after the year (Kusnick, 1997a). If you use someone else’s stuff for a whole paragraph, cite them once in the first sentence and again at the end of the paragraph. If you include a direct quote, put it in quotes and include the page number in the citation (Kusnick, 1997a, p. 37). Be sure to insert a citation anytime you reference factual material or someone else’s opinion. It is better to have too many citations than too few (which can be plagiarism).
Formatting References
At the end of your paper you will have a reference list which includes all items cited in the paper. The reference list is alphabetical, and should be either in APA bibliographic style, or in a style used by a scholarly scientific journal (e.g., Geological Society of America style). The style you choose is less important than being consistent. A typical scientific style might look like this:

Citing Web Sites
Citations for Web sites should look just the same as citations for conventional resources. In your reference list, include this information for Web sites: author, publication date, page title, site title, URL, date accessed, paragraph number (if any). A reference list entry for a Web site might look like this:
Miles, A. 1996, “Academic Bibliographies and the World Wide Web.” Department of Communication Studies HyperText Working Web. http://cs.art.rmit.edu.au/projects/media/hypertext/citation/web_citation.html, August 1996.

Examples of in-text citations
Feeding in channel catfish ( Ictalurus punctatus) was reported to increase the acidity of fish ponds and to decrease the population levels of benthic invertebrates ( Matute et al. 2012)
In a study of Brassica rapa soil nematodes, Matute (2013) demonstrated that soil nematodes could be grouped as acidophilic and basophilic.
Plant-parasitic nematodes and free-living nematodes in soils under a wheat crop in the Pacific North West of the USA, were investigated and related to soil chemical factors. The idea is to identify clusters between soil nematode trophic groups and certain soil chemical factors. This could inform soil amendment operations (Matute et al. 2018)
In a rice rotation study in Arkansas (Matute & Anders, 2012) concluded that rice-rotation that included soybean significantly reduced the populations of the plant-parasitic nematodes and increased the populations of the beneficial nematodes.

Library Sources
For references also use links provided by the library. They are an excellent source to get previous literature related to your topic of investigation.
