An abstract is a concise summary of Select one:
A. All key areas of your lab report including the
introduction, methods, and materials, results, and discussion
B. The Introduction to give the reader background
information before reading your lab report
C. Your results and discussion sections only
D. What you did, but not the results
Since abstracts are so concise, referencing other parts of the
paper is a common practice. Select one:
A. True
B. False
Which of the following sentences provides unnecessary detail for
inclusion in an abstract? Select one:
A. Results showed that the concentration of phosphates was
positively correlated to higher algae concentrations, but that no
correlation existed between nitrate concentrations and algae
growth.
B. Samples were analyzed using Mass Spectrometry, which
looks at the mass of fragments and considers how samples fragment
to identify the parent compounds present.
C. Duplicate water samples were collected from 12 different
sites along Sandy River and analyzed for phosphates and
nitrates.
D. The results of this experiment suggest that the effluent
from the fertilizer plant upstream of the lake is contributing to
the increase in algae.
Which of the following sentences provides unnecessary detail for
inclusion in an abstract? Select one:
A. Different pesticides were tested using the XYZ method to
determine which was most effective at reducing the Blue Fly
population.
B. Weekly spraying of 2,3,5 DST during the summer months of
July and August is recommended to keep The Blue Fly populations
low.
C. Blue Flies are an invasive species to the Timber Falls
area and destroy local grasses which serve as a food source for the
white-tailed deer.
D. The pesticide 2,3,5 DST was found to be effective in
decreasing the number of Blue Flies by 25% (p 0.005) (See Figure
2).
Which of the following is NOT included in an effective
Introduction section? Select one:
A. Telling the reader what you expect to happen
B. Highlighting the importance of the topic
C. Telling the reader what you hope to do
D. Telling the reader what you found

Which of the following statements does not belong in an
Introduction section? Select one:
A. The number of deer was determined by visual aerial
counting using helicopters flying over the area.
B. It was predicted that the body mass of the herd would
decrease significantly, but that the herd size would not be
affected significantly.
C. Research by Park and Field (2010) showed that the deer
grazing area in Deergrove has decreased by 12% since 2005.
D. The goal of this research was to determine if the
reduction in a grazing area in Deergrove is correlated to a
decrease in deer herd size, and/or a decrease in the overall
average body mass of the herd.
What is wrong with the following hypothesis? It is predicted
that the introduction of fifty large male bullfrogs to the Shady
River environment will affect the reproduction rates of the smaller
male bullfrogs already in the environment. Select one:
A. The hypothesis is accepted as written.
B. The hypothesis is overly specific.
C. The hypothesis is ambiguous.
What is wrong with the following hypothesis? It is predicted
that a decrease in temperature will affect the grazing behavior of
white-tailed deer. Select one:
A. The hypothesis is accepted as written.
B. It does not state whether the grazing behavior will
increase or decrease.
C. It does not state where the study will occur.
The Introduction section does not answer which of the following

C. What did you find?
D. Why did you do it?
Which of the following statements shows the recommended verb
tense (past or present) for an Introduction section? Select
one:
A. The goal of this work was to study the effects of
temperature on diffusion.

increased.
B. Neither of the above. The hypothesis is accepted as
written.
C. Both of the above.
