Rat Project
Articles related to rats:
1) Laboratory rat-We are interested in this page because we thought laboratory rat is interesting to go over because rats are always model animals in the scientific world. Also under the section for "stocks and strains" I would like to make this more organized and maybe add a little bit of a general view of what "stocks and strains" means. Under the rat, subcategory has shown that some do not have much information (underrepresented) and maybe add on to that.
Alyza- "Research" section, I would incorporate the idea of why rats are great model organisms (would have to look for links relating to that) and provide a picture of our rat (before the dissection) to show that rats are great organisms to study the anatomy of a mammal/rodents. Also adding information on what makes up a lab rat. This section is clear but needs a hint of revision and clarity.
2) Muridae- We chose this because we thought it would be interesting to add the family tree for the rats. Some of the sections under this article have some misspellings and add more information under "reproduction" and "diet and dentition". Also, making the page more uniformly organized and neat. Structure and the anatomy of what rat you are interested in.. keeping that in mind during lab
Alyza- In the "reproduction" section I could expand more information about the anatomy of the female and male reproductive systems and the function of each part they take. Using the rat in the lab, I could show the picture of the genitalia area of the male and provide context whereas, in the female reproductive system of the rat, I would look for links and pictures to provide information for that section
3) Rat-bite fever- We thought relating rats to sickness and disease in our rat project will be interesting because we will be tying rats back into the real world and how this affects the humans and environment. The page is well written so dissecting each part of the section making sure that everything is credited for and information is accurate will set this page well
Alyza- shows that the page needs more medical references. The article needs more pictures. On the bacteria of the infection, providing pictures of Spirillosis and Streptobacillosis
4) Rodent-
Alyza- "Mating among rodents can vary from monogamy, to polygyny, to promiscuity" -Quotes from the second paragraph, the idea of sexually transmitted disease/infections ( add context behind that)
Interesting link -Brucellosis
Interesting articles/helpful links
Reproductive system:
Testicle-Interested in this anatomy
Reproductive system- "this article mentioned communicable sexually transmitted disease--> explore this on rat disease (rat bite fever)
Media file/Revisions (Week 6)
Decided to do 2 pages
Laboratory rat- "Research section"
Original text: Scientists have bred many strains or "lines" of rats specifically for experimentation. Most are derived from the albino Wistar rat, which is still widely used. Other common strains are the Sprague Dawley, Fischer 344, Holtzman albino strains, Long–Evans, and Lister black hooded rats. Inbred strains are also available, but are not as commonly used as inbred mice.
Plans to add in the first sentence of the paragraph: "Scientists have bred many strains or "lines" of rats specifically for experimentation...due to their measurable intelligence which has found to be similar in humans, rats has aid the understanding of different cognitive factors which makes rat a good model organism."[1] (exact format like this)
Muridae- "Reproduction section"
*Murids' social behavior have an impact in the reproduction. Females displaying proceptive phase which initiate a males to mate with the female[2]* perform Some murids are highly social, while others are solitary. Females commonly produce several litters annually.

Feedback responses
1st and 2nd feedback- Thank you for the feedback, on the research section on the "Laboratory rat" page. I have put the original text above my plan edits for the page making my draft clear on what I will be planning to edit in the section.
3rd feedback- Thank you for such thorough feedback.
Laboratory Rat Section feedback: I have edited my contributions for this section adding the original text to give an idea of where I wish to add. The cited source I have linked is the information that has given me the idea to add. Also, I will contribute your proposed grammatical changes :)
Muridae Section feedback: I am still working on this section and relating it back to the information on reproduction. However, I have just put the number of pups the organism to birth-giving general information on the Muridae, also "message to Dr. Schutz"- I still have trouble looking for a review article to use.
I also appreciate the thorough grammar check and I have implemented those in my edits. Thank you!
