Hi and thank you for using Brainmass. The solution below should get you started. In this particular task, you are asking for help in putting together a discussion on the topic of ontology. I suggest looking towards Descartes and using this simple outline:
1. About your chosen philosopher - 100 words
2. Your reason/purpose - 150 words

This should give you 250 words which should cover what you need. Just let me know via the feedback section if you need further clarification. You can also use the listed resources to further explore the topic. All the best with your studies.
