Do you achieve both 150 minutes of exercise and two days of muscle strengthening per week? What is the average time you exercise at one time? Do you do any stretching before or after exercising or muscle strengthening? What type of exercise do you do on a daily basis? List all. (If you never exercise, say NA.)

I have chosen the topic of physical activity because there are many risk factors that occur from being physically inactive and so many benefits from being active. My primary research is being done through a survey post on the facebook page of the University of Iowa Class of 2022. My primary research is focused on first-year students and if they are meeting the physical activity guidelines. Two of my research questions are do you exercise 150 minutes per week and another is what type of exercise do you do? I am going to analyze my data by comparing it to a previous research study of University of Iowa students a year ago and see if any declines or inclines have occurred.

IMRaD format is different from an argument paper format for many reasons. First, The audience is usually different and with IMRaD, the writer is not trying to persuade anyone, but rather inform then on the new data they collected. Therefore, IMRaD is usually new evidence, while argument papers are developed from older, multiple papers or articles. Sometimes, both of these types of papers have subheadings to help organize there paper. Although they can both have subheadings, IMRaD is used to skim the paper and find the information when the question arises, while persuasive papers want you to get all the information at once. Another difference is that the IMRaD paper has an abstract to give critical background information. While persuasive papers can have abstracts, IMRaD abstracts are more important and necessary for the reader, because we usually argue topics that are well-known so people do not just agree with you, but IMRaD can be totally new information to every reader.
