gone through the paper; The structure of the paper and the method of reviewing to address the problem statement is clear and details. In my opinion, it needs a few changes before proceeding for publication, and I have tried to address them. I hope my comments help to improve the quality of the paper. Please eliminate the lump of references. After that please check the manuscript thoroughly and eliminate all the lumps in the manuscript. This should be done by characterizing each reference individually. This can be done by mentioning 1 or 2 phrases per reference to show how it is different from the others and why it deserves mentioning. Please eliminate the use of redundant words. Eg. In this way, Recently, Respectively, therefore,

currently, thus, hence, finally, to do this, first, in order, however, moreover, nowadays, today, consequently, in addition, additionally, furthermore. Please revise all similar cases, as removing these term(s) would not significantly affect the meaning of the sentence. This will keep the manuscript as concise as possible. Please check all. Avoid beginning or ending a sentence with one or a few words, they are usually redundant.

Kindly revise all. It is recommended that the authors work with a science editor who is proficient in the Native English language to improve the organization and delivery of some portions of the manuscript. This will help improve the readability and help articulate better the relevance of the authors' work. The journal's author guidelines and instructions should be followed in preparing the revised version.

Dear Author,

As you see from your semi-final technical revised file as attached (4103 Galley Proof-2), there are some additional required corrections are needed for (Figs 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) which are indicated throughout the text.

Thus, you must revise them accurately along with the English corrections! All the figures corrections must be done on the attached file (4103 Galley Proof-2).

In addition, as we have already noticed, you must ask the Enago

proofreading Proofreading Services that all new edited English corrections must be highlighted with RED fonts to be recognized by the Editor. We hope we receive your well-done revisions as the forthcoming issue is going to release. Also, your manuscript file size was 7.3 MB which was too large for the publication process, so it is now reduced to 1MB. So, keep the attached file for your further action.

In addition, we have already asked you (Professor Muksin) about the Enago agency with no response by you!

Dear Author(s),

We think you do not understand what we noticed you. In this regard we normally reject such behaviour and action by authors, but because of your records as our previous authors wwe will give you a single final chance! According to the recent Journal regulations all non-English native authors Galley Proof which all technical revisons are done not before the technical revisions, it must be handed to a ceritified English Agency to edit the Galley Proof along with highlighting the sentences which are edited in English format to be recognized by the Editor.

Also, an uptodate formal cerificate must be issued and forwarded along the edited file throught the system (The English Agency email and website must be written in the ceritficate for confirmation).

In addition. it is the responsibility of the editor in chief and Journal English text editor of the Journal to determine the approved and corrected English, not the authors!).

Therefore your final version needs professional English corrections! (Perhaps you may find a right certified English proofreading for your paper).

Therefore, next time, if you do not perform our recommendation pretty well anymore, your file will be closed with no further action, especially your 2 previous published articles had no interested (cited) by other scientis around the world!).

Dear Author(s),

At this period, you should take the following 2 steps:

1- Attached in your dashboard in the website system, you will find three files; 1) Galley Proof, 2) Copyright release, 3) Conflict of interest forms.

Please read and finalize the Galley proof content as remaining some additional technical corrections. Then, complete and sign the two copyright forms and return them into PDF format through your dashboard (#4103) in the system immediately for the final

processes. This step must be done after performing the step 2.

2- After finalizing your technical content, your prepared technical file needs to be corrected and finalize its English grammatical content, thus it should be finalized by the English text editing institute providing the certificate to bring more citations to your article for your scientific validity and future h-index benefits. Remember ask the English editor to highlight the English corrections with red fonts JUST on the send Galley Proof to be

recognized and approved by the Editor.

3- We are also surprised that you this is your third publications with no citations at the indexed databases publications throughout the world!!! It is necessary to mention just publishing an article with no citations are not good for you and your group. That means no one is interested to use your data as they are not interested by them!!!

Remember, if co-authors are not available to sign the forms, the corresponding author can sign in her/his own row, on their co-authors behalf if the co-authors have authorized the copyright.

You will have 5 days’ time to return your completed revised manuscript back. In case of not receiving your revised file after the deadline, we assume that you do not like or cannot revise your last stage of article process of publication and therefore your file will be closed with no further action.
