The article that I evaluated is human cloning. The parts of the article that were good had good information on the types of "human" cloning that we do with that being therapeutic cloning and reproductive cloning. As well as the history and current laws on cloning humans. The part of the article that was not good was that it lacked information on how effective cloning is and whether or not it works (the clones survival) I think this is because this idea of cloning humans is relativity new subject that hasn't been studied that much yet.

The article that i am choosing to do is on beneficial organisms

There are many different types of beneficial organisms as well as beneficial microorganisms. Beneficial organisms include but are not limited to: Birds, Bears, Nematodes, Insects, Arachnids, and fungi. The ways that birds and bears are considered beneficial is mainly because they consume seeds from plant and spread them through feces. Birds also prey on certain insects that eat plants and hinder them from growing these insects are known as non beneficial organisms. Nematodes are considered beneficial because they will help compost and provide nutrients for the soil the plants are growing in. Insects and arachnids help the growing process because they prey on non beneficial organisms that consume plants for food. Fungi help the growing process by using long threads of mycelium that can reach very long distances away from the tree or plant and bring water and nutrients back to the tree or plant roots.

Beneficial Microorganisms include but are not limited to lactic acid bacteria, photosynthetic bacteria, fermenting fungi, and yeasts. Lactic acid bacteria help the growing process by making lactic acid which is used for/ as a fertilizer, keeps harmful microorganisms away, as well as rapidly decomposing organic matter. Photosynthetic Bacteria aid the growing process by making useful substances out of harmful materials with the aid of sunlight, secretions from the bacteria can also be turned into helpful amino and nucleic acids as well as bio active substances that assist in plant growth. Yeasts help by promoting cell division in the growing parts of the plants like roots, stems, and leaves. Fermenting fungi produce alcohol, esters, and anti-microbial's these substances help prevent infesting microorganisms from invading the plant.

With beneficial organisms there is a flip side to these helpful organisms and that's the non beneficial organisms. These organisms hinder or stop the growing process or prey on beneficial organisms. Examples of these are Aphids, Assassin Bugs, and Japanese beetles. Aphids are attracted by pollen which is bad for plants because the aphids feed on the plants after they are located from spreading their pollen. Assassin Bugs are non beneficial because they feed on many beneficial insects by stabbing them with a horn on their head repeated times living up to its name "Assassin bug". Japanese beetles are especially a pest to gardeners and plants because the larva feed on the stems and roots while full grown beetles feed on leaves and flowers killing the plant.

The article is good, you've included a section for microorganisms which the article was missing. You've also considered the reversal: non-beneficial organisms which will also be helpful to the article. Were there any sources that you wanted to site in the article itself? All-in-all it appears that you've done your research, its presented logically, and its readable. Good job.

Thank you for your comments.

The article I'm choosing to evaluate is Animal Cloning after reading over the article the information it does have is animals that have been cloned with the dates of their birth. The things that the article does not have is how the cloning happens, what makes a successful clone, how long do the clone's survive if they are successfully born.

The article I'm choosing to do is generalist and specialist species.
