One way to demonstrate academic integrity is to give credence and acknowledgement to the sources of your information.
For example:
You wrote a definition of a term. And you found that definition in a book authored by somebody. On you paper, you either write "According to the novel written by author, TERM is defined as..."
For example:
You are tasked to define the word "plagiarism".
To demonstrate academic integrity, you define plagiarism like this:
According to wikipedia, Plagiarism is <span>the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Note that you have stated your source.
You can then add your own input and thought about the word. Like this:
I believe that plagiarism is an act of a lazy person. A person who pretends to be smart but in reality is just a parasite.

Answer:
It is critical from the public's perspective that there is confidence in the claimed purity of any particular item made from precious metals. This confidence is provided by an 'assay' (test and assess) of the precious metal content of that item. It is impossible to tell the precious metal content of any item simply by looking at it. Precious metals such as old, silver, and platinum are too soft to use alone for making jewellery, cutlery and other goods. Quite properly they must be alloyed with base metals (which happen to be cheap) for manufacturing. The assay protects the consumer by ensuring sure that not too much base metal was used. It also safeguards responsible manufacturers by providing an independent assessment of quality and content that in which the public has confidence.
