Option 1

 * Article title
 * Homeostasis (my choice of article)


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article starts off with an introduction and definition of the topic. I would say the article is written in neutral form, meaning it is not bias towards any topic. It simply explains homeostasis in depth. I don't find it bias as it is only explaining about homeostatic. I believe most claims are backed with citations.  Most cites mentioned are journals, article and books. Books are the most reliable sources therefore information gathered from a book is most likely good quality content. it is a strongly back with reliable references. In this article there was some citations with different topic in them. Meaning those references include unrelated topics. more reference to add on the article listed below.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Shivering
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article explains animals mechanism to give their body heat in a cold environment. I don't find this article bias as it is only explaining a mechanism animals have to fight cold temperature. on the other hand I think this article is very short, it needs additional information to inform the audience about the topic. There is only four references listed as information in the article is minimum.
