Learning Goal: I’m working on a nutrition multi-part question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.
Follow what I have written below to construct the Introduction for my research paper. Everything is provided below.
Introduction:
- A rational research question and hypothesis are stated:
- Question: Is there a noticeable difference between blocked vegan and regular medium cheddar cheese?
- Hypothesis: We predict that the vegan cheese will have a different, more rubbery texture and primary characteristics to be less firm and cohesive
- reviews literature to state why we care about the problem/importance.

- https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0924224421005604 (why vegan cheese is needed)
- At least 3 studies are cited to back-up study significance (about 2-3 paragraphs)
- https://ift.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/j.1365-2621.1994.tb05557.x (textures of different cheeses, including “vegetarian� cheese)

- Addresses the practical gap the research is filling, or what question the study will address (objectives)?
- Our objective is that texture plays a big role in likability of cheese and lactose intolerance should not defer people from consuming food they enjoy
