It seems like you're describing the structure of an essay, particularly the introduction and body sections. Here's a clarification of each component:

1. **Introduction (Response area)**: This is where the main topic or topics of the essay are introduced. It often includes a thesis statement that previews what the essay will discuss. This helps set the stage for the reader, giving them an idea of what to expect.

2. **Body (also Response area)**: This is where the majority of the details, supporting arguments, and evidence are presented. Each paragraph typically focuses on a specific point that supports the thesis stated in the introduction, elaborating on the main topic in more detail.
