to inform readers with a summary about the field of herpetology

While writing a persuasive piece, which appeal should you use to get your audience to believe and trust you?

The responder's answer would be ethos.

Ethos speaks of the character's credibility or the persuader's credibility of what he or she is asserting and positing, is it strong and bold or just a mere existent elaboration. Thus follows the characteristics on tone, logos and pathos. Ethos is one key to trusting since it presents one's consistency and as a reliable speaker.
