1. An essay is a piece of writing usually written from a author's personal point of that analyses and evalutes on issues or a topic. Writing an essay means to express your academic openion on a particular matter. Major concern is to the deep knowledge about the topic, Topic should be relevant to current requirement, Needs to understand the psycholgy of the readers, The way of putting the information etc.

2. The body paragraph of the essay is the meat and potatoes of the essay,It needs to contain lots of juicy textual evidence and meaty support. Each body paragraph contains one main idea backed up by textual evidence and own analysis. The analysis should occupy majority of paragraph. The body paragraph should contain a number of points that makes the argument, These points should be substantiated by data - either in the form of direct quotes or paraphrasing.

3.It is obvious that if a paragraph is not unified, doesn't have a logical order, and doesn't have a consistent point of view the reader is unlikey to grasp the point of paragraph, The use of transitional words and phrases, repetition of key words and phrases, pronoun reference, coordinate conjunctions and parallel sentence structure helps to establish the consistent relationship between the sentence and paragraphs.
