Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I decided to evaluate this article because it had the most relation to the course I am currently taking. This article is a good way for me to learn basics of this course, while also reviewing how someone else has interpreted many sources and information. I was also able to view what an article that pulls from many different sources would look like, which will help me with any future articles I will create. My first impression of this article is that it has a very strong introduction paragraph that would make a reader want to know more.

This article does a good job at presenting the information needed about invertebrate zoology. The tone is neutral, with all statements being backed by a source. All claims feel unbiased and the sources are up to date and reliable. Visually, the article is lacking photos so it may not grab someone's attention at first. I would change this by adding 2-3 photos so it does not feel cluttered, but the reader would have the chance to visualize what they are reading. Overall, the article is well written and feels very professional. Terms are all defined and used to further solidify the information presented.
