What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Comparison of the Respiratory System of Fishes and Frogs
The evolution of the vertebrate respiratory system is of considerable interest among evolutionary biologists because it represents a crucial adaptive process that allowed aquatic organisms to inhabit terrestrial niches. While fish primarily depend on gills and cutaneous respiration for gas exchange, frogs at different developmental stages employ gills, cutaneous respiration, and lungs to avoid hypoxia. This essay examines the anatomic and functional differences between fish and frogs to gain a better understanding of this evolutionary process.
