D#7, HW#8 -- summarize resource, paraphrase resource

HW#8


SUMMARY:

Advanced maternal age: the mature gravida is a brief paragraph giving research results comparing pregnancy and delivery in women is their 30's and 20's; stating that there is little or no difference.


PARAPHRASE:

Cancer risk and advanced maternal age is an article regarding cancer risks and how they correlate to advanced maternal age. This research shows that every five years increased in the mother's age their child is 7-10% more likely to develop leukaemia, kymphoma, central nervous system tumor, neuroblastoma, wilms' tumor, bone cancer, and soft tissue sarcoma before the age of 15.


I feel like this will be better as a direct quote because it involves numbers and research I wouldn't wan any information left out.
