Mike, the presentation of the sentence will really depend upon it is being used in the context of the message. Since you presented an outline of the related information, it would seem like the sentence should be presented in its past form. That is because the implied information relates to past experiences or actions of the speaker / writer. You could have said "One might wonder about what is being described here." Which would have been the more grammatically correct presentation of the sentence. In this case, the outline indicates a past tense use. It would have been easier to create a succeeding sentence if you had instead, presented the information in paragraph form as well. Unless otherwise specified, it is always best to use the paragraph form of introducing information in an essay because it creates an easier method for sentence development.
