First five methods of development

"THE SPIDER AND THE WASP" by Alexander Petrunkevitch is an example of good writing and a good example of it's particular method of development, process.
One of the reasons that this essay is considered to be an example of good writing is because it has one strong claim rather than too many claims or no claims. "The case that I propose to describe here is that of the tarantula spiders and their arch-enemy, the digger wasps of the genus Pepsis. It is a classic example of what looks like intelligence pitted against instinct-a strange situation in which the victim, though fully able to defend itself, submits unwittingly to its destruction"(210) is the claim of the essay. It then supports the claim by writing about tarantulas and Pepsis, how they reproduce,their special properties, and survival on a daily basis. This piece does not have any truisms(obvious statements) which is another factor that affects good writing.
Process is a method of development that requires writing in chronological order. When Petrunkevitch describes the process of the wasp paralyzing the spider, he does it in order of first to last step. It starts from paragraph eleven to thirteen. These three paragraphs explain in great detail on how the wasp tackles and paralyzes the tarantula in chronological order.
