Write a few sentences (about 100 words) integrating a quote from any of the articles that you will be using in your paper. Be sure to connect your quote to the rest of your sentences. You can do this via signal phrases (“Smith argues” OR “According to Smith,” etc) or by integrating your quote as it grammatically fits into your sentence. Document your quote by using the APA in-text citation guidelines you have studied in this lesson.
When you are done posting your response, reply to at least one classmate in no fewer than 75 words. Comment on how effectively they have integrated a quote.
Your discussion post will be graded according to the following criteria:
- 80% – Thoughtful original post that properly integrates a quote from one of your sources in at least 100 words
- 20% – Thoughtful response to a classmate’s post that comments on how well they have integrated their quote with the rest of their sentences (at least 75 words)
- ********i will send you a classmate’s post after i submit mine because it does’nt let me access it before ********

R1: With the average human consuming “an estimated 39,000 to 52,000 microplastic particles per year from food and beverages alone” (“Plastic pollution solutions, 2020, Par 3), the health risk is growing in a number of concerns. Microplastic alone carries toxins, mutagens, and carcinogens. With that said, once the plasters enter the human body, it will “carry additives from the manufacturing process, chemicals absorbed to the plastics, and pathogens or parasites that may be on the plastic” (Plastic pollution solutions, 2020, Par 3). As easy as it is for us humans to consume without knowledge, it has gotten much worse for animals; especially those in the aquatic life.
