Fluoride in drinking water an human health

Assignment 4: Sources and citation
The purpose of this assignment is to cement in your mind the difference between primary and secondary sources and to give you a small bit of experience providing a formal citation. Please view the video presentation on this subject before completing the assignment; it will make a lot more sense that way.
Please seek out primary and secondary SCIENTIFIC papers. The humanities and social sciences sometimes have other rules. I am not interested in a citation of the Declaration of Independence of the Diary of Anne Frank for your primary sources; I want you to find articles by scientists who collect data from nature.
Complete this assignment by typing within this document and uploading to Moodle.

Part 1. Primary and Secondary Sources
1. Find a primary source on the Internet.
What is the general subject? Fluoride in drinking water and human health
What is the URL? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4851520/
What evidence do you have that it is a primary source?
This is because the source presents the results that are of original research and is presented in the format of an article, pre-publication or a print of articles. This article also reports actual research or reporting the data gathering of the other projects. It is also research that is practically done. The researcher has researched on their own. They have the methods and have arrived on a conclusion hence it is s first-hand data.
2. Find a secondary source on the Internet.

What is the general subject? Fluoride in drinking water and human health
What is the URL? http://medical-clinical-reviews.imedpub.com/fluoride-fact-on-human-health-and-health-problems-a-review.php?aid=7968
What evidence do you have that it is a secondary source?
The data is secondary as it reports on the works that have been done by the others. It does not have any research that is done first hand by the researcher. Hence, it is a secondary data. this a secondary data where the authors are not using their work but the work of others while they conclude.
3-5. Find three more references, at least one of which is a primary source, and list them below.
3. Is this source is a primary or secondary source? _secondary source_______________
What is the general subject? Alcohol’s Effects on Brain and Behavior
What is the URL? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3625995/
What evidence do you have that it is a primary or secondary source?
It is secondary because the authors are reporting on the research that had been done earlier. It does not give the first half information that is important in primary data. It is a data where the researchers have used the work of others in their referrals to make their conclusion.
4. Is this source is a primary or secondary source? _primary_______________
What is the general subject? The effect of Water Stress on Cell Division and Cdc2-Like Cell Cycle Kinase Activity in Wheat Leaves
What is the URL? http://www.plantphysiol.org/content/117/2/667
What evidence do you have that it is a primary or secondary source?
The first evidence is that he researcher of this projects took the initiative to conduct the research through planting seedlings in a garden and exposed some of them to the variable. Hence, the paper has an experiment that has been conducted b the researchers. In this case, the researcher conducted their experiments in first hand. This took place through undergoing the methodology and arriving at the conclusions
5. Is this source is a primary or secondary source? _primary_______________
What is the general subject? FLUORIDE: A REVIEW OF USE AND EFFECTS ON HEALTH
What is the URL? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4851520/
What evidence do you have that it is a primary or secondary source?
The authors have conducted them own experiments to arrive at the conclusions. This is a primary source. The author has not referred to his work from anywhere to conclude, they have undergone through conducting the health experiments.
Part 2. Citation styles
In this part, you need to create a fictitious citation. BE CREATIVE!!!
This is the citation style you will follow in your assignment:
Xiang X, Beckwith SM, Morris NR. 1994. Cytoplasmic dynein is involved in nuclear migration in Aspergillus nidulans. Proc Nat Acad Sci USA 91:2100–2104.
Your citation must conform to the above style. Note this:
The first name is given only as an initial, after the surname, without separation by a comma.
Authors are separated by a comma.
There is a period after the last author’s name, after the year of publication, after the title, and at the end of the citation.
Taxonomic names are italicized and capitalized appropriately.
Journals are abbreviated according to standard abbreviations given in CASSI except without periods.
the volume number is followed by a colon. Page number range separated by a hyphen without spaces and anything line “pp.” included.
Further requirements:
Your fictitious citation should have more than two authors.
It must refer to a real existing journal (so you can find its abbreviation on CASSI)
Include the taxonomic name of coast redwoods
Type your fictitious citation below
