Explanation / Answer

On a 5 point scale ranging from 1- poor and 5; I will rate the abstract at 3 as this abstract lacks the background of this research under consideration in this article. However, it clearly states the methods used in the research informing the reader about what was done and how it was done. It has the result section. The result section was the longest section in the abstract and this was the correct way of writing the abstract as it should be the longest section. The result section was followed by the take home message section the conclusion. Due to lack of background, I am giving 3 rating out of a total of 5
