Third Assignment... Infographics! So much fun!

from Infographics - Do they help explain complex concepts? May 18, 2015 12:26pm Ashley Grace



I would say that this infograph does communicate complex data to an audience that understands DNA and how it functions. To those who don't really know what DNA is or anything about agriculture this infograph may be scary. I would say it is a good example of how little we are actually manipulating the plants, and that changing one to four genes in a staple crop is really not going to make you grow a third eye. This could have added more information about the processes mentioned like transgenic, interference, mutagens and cross breeding. Yes cross breeding is considered genetic engineering because you altering the genes even if it is more "natural." Perhaps it could even show why mutagenisis can not find how many genes were actually altered, especially when we have DNA sequencing so readily available to us.

This is targeted to those that have not studied the processes of genetic engineering, and those who are just learning about it. I would say young people in college who are developing their thoughts and personalities would be targeted the most.

And Finally I made my own!

This infograph explains very depressing news but I plan on working towards a solution with my genetic engineering research! Perhaps I could make an infograph about my plan to do that.
