You may use any sources you wish (books, periodicals, Internet sites) to collect the data but these sources must be properly cited and the references available in a bibliography (see #4). On the Word file, the links (hyperlinks) to your references must be hot! (they must work!!)

3) Neatly typed narrative description (1,000 words minimum, i.e., about two pages minimum) of the uses, importance, biological significance (if any) historical information, and any additional interesting information for the element. This should be written in paragraph format with proper grammar and spelling. Outlines or lists will not be given credit. Information must be properly cited (see #4). Plagiarism will result in a zero grade for this project with no chance to earn the lost points through other means.
