Scientific Writing is simply writing about science. The 4 types of scientific writing include: 1. Infographics 2. Posters 3. Literature Reviews 4. Journal Articles

10 types of tones in writing: 1. Formal 2. Informal 3. Optimistic 4. Worried 5. Friendly 6. Curious 7. Assertive 8. Encouraging 9. Surprised 10. Cooperative

A formal writing tone is common in academic or professional contexts. This tone focuses on being thorough and direct, yet respectful. It uses full words, rather than contractions, and emphasizes facts and grammatical correctness.

In informal tone of writing, the opposite is the case when compared to the formal tone. It is conversational and expressive like when speaking to a friend. Can be long and chatty, with shorter sentence structure. You can also make use of contractions and colloquial phrases.

In scientific writing, always remember that clarity is of more essence than the long words.

What is that one way of communication that's particularly good at helping people remember things? . . . .. Story telling 😊

Three types of review articles: - Non-systematic review - Systematic review - Meta - analysis ...what differentiate them from each other?

Literature survey/search/review: By learning about what has already been done in a particular field of research, you can: -Identify gaps to investigate -Identify research opportunities to pursue -Develop or refine any research ideas you might have.

Impress the reader with clarity, not with long words. Do not overload your science report with complex writing. Make it as easy as possible for others to understand.
