I chose:

Perry, G. H., & Verdu, P. (2017). Genomic perspectives on the history and evolutionary ecology of tropical rainforest occupation by humans. Quaternary International, 448, 150–157. https://doi-org.ezproxy.tru.ca/10.1016/j.quaint.2016.04.038

This is an academic, peer-reviewed paper.

The article is academic because it is written by professionals in their field. It has in-text citations and there are many papers referred to in the references section. The article is published in Quaternary International, which means that it is peer reviewed but it is a review not research material since it is lacking methods and results sections and has a topic instead of a research question it strives to answer.
