The Correct Way to Format an Essay
First, select Times New Roman as the font and 12 as the font
size. Make sure the paragraph is set to double space, and that
you have checked the dialog box in “Paragraph” that says:
“Don’t add space between paragraphs of the same style.” The
heading, which includes your name, your teacher’s name, the
course name and the date the paper is due, goes in the upper left
corner of your paper. It is double-spaced like the body of the
paper. The title of your paper should be centered and in the
same font as the body of the paper. Do not use bold or
underlining. Remember to capitalize the first word and all
important words of the title.
Indent the first line of each paragraph. Do not skip an extra line
between paragraphs. Space once after each punctuation mark.

3. Do not space before a punctuation mark. If your essay is longer
than one page, insert the page number on the right side of the
header. To do this, open the header and use the tab key to move
the cursor to the right. Type your last name and then use the
menu bar to insert the correct page number. Remember to select
Times New Roman as your font and 12 as the font size just as
you did for the text of your paper.
If you follow the above instructions, your paper should look
like this page. Note that to quote from The Sixth Extinction,
you need merely put the passage in quotation marks followed by
the appropriate page number (Kolbert, p. 224).

Elizabeth Kolbert: The Sixth
Extinction
Elizabeth Kolbert organizes the chapters in the sixth extinction
in Romanic aspects. Each roman number entails a chapter in
which Kolbert clearly defines the subject matter and the theme
revealed in the specific chapter. The chapter’s organization
starts with a prologue, which gives an overview of what the
book entails. Firstly, the prologue dates back to two hundred
thousand years when new species started to emerge. The species
have had a versatile knowledge of geographical movement
ranging from seas, lands, plateaus and mountain ranges. The
species faced no constraints of geographical location, climate
restrictions, predators, preys as well as different habitation. In
fact, wherever the species settled they adapted the habitat and
even innovated in the specific habitat.
However, the problem arises when the initial species found in
the habitats by the travelers lacks the skill of defending and

6. securing themselves from the newcomers. The resultant of the
ill-equipped aspect leads the initial species to succumb
(Kolbert, 4), thus clearing the way for the newcomers to
habituate and have dominion over the initial species. To some
extent, the initial species upon succumbing they go to an extinct
since most of them are slow inbreeding, and thus they become
wiped out. Similarly, the intrusion of newcomers brings rise to
survival for the fitness and thus the cycle continues. On the
other hand, the Homo sapiens species reproduces at an
unprecedented rate, (Kolbert, p.15) thus doubling its population,
thus leading to the clearance of large forest to provide
settlements for the Homo sapiens. Clearing of the forests makes
organisms shift from one locality to another, change of the
atmospheric composition, alteration of the climate and
chemistry in the forest, extinction becomes high and thus an
overall change in the life texture of species.
The first chapter, titled The Sixth Extinction (Kolbert, p.4),
raises the curtain by introducing the frog species and their
endangered outcomes. The extinction aspect had entirely spread
among the golden-skinned frog species around the El Valle
hills. The disappearance of the frogs was at an alarming rate
that came into the notice of biologists. As a result, golden from
species was conformed indoors due to insufficient lab facilities,
where they stood treated as guests checked in a five-star hotel.
The extinction of golden frog gave Kolbert an awaking
reasoning of the extinction of other species such as dinosaurs,
plesiosaurs, ammonites among others. The chapter reflects an
image of yellow-legged frogs on top of a cliff all dead. One
would care to wonder the cause of the death of the frogs as the
picture appears to trigger a head scratching thought. Studies
also indicate that lasts of amphibians could have existed and
gone extinct without any notice. The fact of been unnoticed
affirms to herpetologists statements that amphibians fossils are
very fragile and thus so rare.
The second chapter titled The Mastodon’s Molars, (Kolbert,
p.26) takes a reflection of the effigy left behind as proves that

7. such animals once existed. The chapter relates to a child been
given a dinosaur toy yet he has never come across one.
Similarly, the chapter goes ahead to indicate that during the
Renaissance period marked by great scholars such as Aristotle
the term and idea of extinction were far from the mind. During
that time, most historical books such as the History of Animals
by Aristotle and Linnaeus, (Kolbert, p.29) contribution in the
binomial nomenclature only viewed the living and dead
organism but not the extinct species.
The following chapters also precedent themselves in Roman
numbers starting from Roman I which curtain raises the idea of
extinction and the extinct species all the way to Roman number
XII titled The Thing with Feathers, (Kolbert, p.259).
Chapter VI titled The Sea aroundUs, (Kolbert, p.111) took a
look at the endangered sea species. The one aspect that puts sea
creatures in danger is the emission of carbon dioxide gases from
the violent volcanic eruptions. Once the gas reaches the sea, it
dissolves in water to form an acidic composition. When the gas
dissolves in water it is absorbed into the system of sea creates.
Upon reaching the breathing systems, it clogs the respiratory
systems thus leading to suffocation and even death.
Also, waste products from industries directed along the sea
forms a coat around the sea. As a result, air circulation is
hindered towards reaching the sea creatures thus amounting to
death. Also, the clogging of the sea surface not only leads to the
death of sea creatures but also interferes with their breeding
system. The gases and waste products released into the sea
hinders fertilization whereby the egg of most sea creature
become contaminated, and thus they fail to breed. Also, upon
successful interbreeding, the eggshells in most cases are weak,
and thus the breed turns out to be a weak species and thus dies
due to natural selection. In other words, sea creatures are faced
with the threat of extinction due to low fertility and poor
interbreeding aspects.
On other note, the aquatic creatures are faced with the piercing
by various biologists, herpetologists and individuals who study

8. sea creatures. Taking of sea creatures sample for laboratory use
leads to the interference of the breeding system as well as the
ecosystem of the sea creatures. In some instances, the scientists,
biologists and herpetologists go through various scientific steps
that are bombarded with trial and error. In between, the samples
taken for further research either dies within the research proves
or becomes irrelevant.
In such situation, the researchers go back to the drawing
roots of the sea in search of new species thus the cycle
continues repeatedly. Creatures living on the island are covered
in the titles of The Islands on Dry Lands and The Thing with
Feathers, (Kolbert, p.173). Land creatures take the form of land
animals and air creatures such as a bird. The land creatures
come into very close contact with the Homo sapiens species.
Therefore, they are termed to be the most endangered species in
Kolbert’s Sixth Extinction books. The chapters look into the
human nature regarding creativity, innovation and intelligence.
The activities of industrialization, technology, globalization and
urbanization have placed a great danger to land species.
Some of the highlighted aspects major towards human activities
of interference with the atmosphere, climate, forests and an
overall effect on the ozone layer. In return, the human activities
lead to the destruction of habitats, poaching, and killing of
animals thus leading to the interference of the ecosystem. Most
of the industries such as textile require animals’ skills for the
manufacture of skin products. As a result, the land species are
poached and killed to access their skins. On the other aspect,
the industries, deforestation activities destroy habitation of
animals forcing them to relocate to other areas. In return, due to
nature selection and interference with the food chain, the land
creatures are faced with the shortage of food and habitation thus
leading an endangered life.
The VII chapter of The Forrest and the Trees, (Kolbert, p.148)
gives a clear outline of the habitation and the usefulness of
maintaining the species habitation. The chapter looks into the
interior structure of various species habitation and the

9. connectivity with the surrounding world. The chapter traces the
originality of species and their habitation, which was vast,
covered with trees that formed forests, as well as water body
masses.
However, the geographical distribution and movement of Homo
sapiens arising from the quest of knowledge and innovation
marked the beginning of the crisis. In their motive of curiosity
and innovation, vast lands were cleared to pave the way for
settlement and start of industries. In return, the land species had
to move from one biosphere to the next in search of habitation.
As if that was not enough, the human species employed the
tactic of “the frog hotel”, an article read by Kolbert. In such a
case, land species were caged in an area for monitoring and
paving the way for land to practice agriculture, industrialization
and urbanization. Therefore, species were restricted in
movement and their new engaged locality, transmitted diseases
thus causing their death and eventual extinction easily affected
them.
In conclusion, Kolbert clearly presents her case by giving
proves regarding a recap of the past events through articles,
storybooks, and oral literature. In this area, Kolbert entails the
reader to look into the current state of affairs and thus relate
them to the past and to map out how the future will turn out to
be because of Homo sapiens activities.
Also, Kolbert brings together the views of various scholars
and their works together such as Charles Darwin on the origin
of species, Aristotle on his book of The Animal History and the
works of binomial nomenclature by Linnaeus. Also, Kolbert
looks into the works of various scientists, paleontology,
herpetology and anthropology and observes the terrain of
emergency, crisis and extinction of species resulting from
human activities. Once brought together, the views form a
strong basis for her claims and in that some, Kolbert clearly
presents her case and thus there is no speck of failure of her
case.

Course Policies:
· The syllabus, class assignments, and other important class
material can be found on the class Blackboard page. Be sure to
check Blackboard regularly for information about the class. For
class readings and assignments, consult the syllabus, but make
sure and check Blackboard for updates.
· Class participation and comportment. Students are always

12. welcome to ask questions, make observations, and raise
concerns. Class participation is an important part of your grade,
and some students will naturally be more confident talking in
class than others. For this reason, it is imperative that students
treat each other with respect in the classroom. Disruptions of
any sort in the classroom cause students to de-value their
contributions and discourage class discussion. Texting in class
is forbidden, as is talking when another student is speaking. The
class participation portion of your grade will reflect your
general comportment in class.
· Regular attendance in class is required. Students may miss up
to three classes without it impacting their final grade; six or
more absences over the course of the semester is grounds for
failure. If you are on a sports team with a demanding travel
schedule, you should discuss it with me. Routine illness is not
considered an excused absence. Contact me in the event of a
serious medical situation, and check in with Blackboard
regularly in order to keep up with work in the class.
· Papers should be uploaded on Blackboard on the day that they
are due. Each paper must be submitted through the links
accessible on our class Blackboard page. I do not accept late
papers. In extraordinary circumstances, I will grant an extension
for a paper, but only if that extension is requested before the
due date of the paper, and I reserve the right to deduct five
points for each day that the paper is late. If an extension is
granted, make sure and confirm it in writing with an email.
· Laptops should be used appropriately in the classroom. While
many students use their laptops to take notes during class,
laptops can also interfere with class discussion. If I sense that
students are not on-task with respect to laptop use, students will
be asked to close their laptops.
· Paper Format. Papers should use MLA format. An overview of
MLA format can be found on the Purdue OWL site. Your papers
must be in Times New Roman font, in twelve point type,
double-spaced, and with standard margins. Place your name,
class section and date in the upper left corner. A student may be

13. asked to re-submit his or her paper if it does not follow this
criteria.
· Plagiarism is against Bryant University policy and will be
dealt with severely. Plagiarism is the unattributed use of
another writer’s words in your own written work. Plagiarism is
a serious offense and, according to university policy, may result
in you receiving a failing grade in the course.
Office hours. If you are not able to come to my scheduled office
hours, please contact me in order to schedule a meeting.
