Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A scientific paper is written as a presentation of the findings of a research project. The example sentences above clearly state the objective of the paper and present the idea they are going to explore.
Newspaper story - This is not the correct genre, as newspaper stories typically use narrative-style writing to discuss important current events. A newspaper might report on interesting findings of scientific studies, but it would be written in a way that sums up the important ideas for readers. This would not be how a newspaper reports the information.
Instruction manual - This is incorrect as the paper is seeking to explore a particular idea, not provide directions on how to do something.
Novel - This is incorrect as a novel is typically a fictional, narrative-style story. It is not a genre or style of writing that is used to report back on the findings of a scientific study.
