how is it different from an introdution paragraph or body paragraph?
The introductory paragraph(s) provides the reader with any necessary background information before leading into a clear statement of the writer's point of view. [ The point of view, or thesis statement, is a brief but very specific statement of the position the writer will take in the essay. The introductory paragraph may also present an overall plan of the way the essay's argument will be developed, as well as any limits the writer will place on the topic.
The body paragraphs which follow all flow logically from the introductory paragraph. They expand on the thesis statement and each in
turn is clearly focused on a single issue with plenty of supporting detail or evidence from concrete and relevant examples, or from the reading which the writer uses to support the point of view. Arguments by other writers against the point of view taken by the essay writer should also be presented (and argued against) in the body paragraphs. The body paragraphs carefully build up the writer's point of view in detail. ]
