    Hi! Thanks for explaining what a lysosome is. I learned a lot about their significance and how they maneuver through organisms. I didn’t know that they are so important even for the flushing of other bacteria! I also really enjoyed the presentation and how it looks! Everything looks great and clean! What influenced or encouraged you to create this infographic?

  • Jakob Hanks

    First off, great infographic! I was intrigued by your infographic due to the exciting title and the fact that I am currently doing research on the lysosome. I had no idea that the lysosome not only defends and breaks down bacteria and viruses, but also does simple maintenance by cleaning up cell parts that are no longer needed. The order that all of the information was displayed in is perfect. I was able to start with what the lysosome is and then proceed on to its function, background, symptoms, and diseases associated with it. All of the images in the infographic as well as the color scheme are amazing as well. Overall, I learned a lot from your infographic and I believe you all did an amazing job!

    Great infographic. This infographic was organized perfectly. It is easy to follow through, information is clear and direct, and it’s engaging, ultimately allowing the reader to understand the information better. The analogy of the police was pretty clever and resonates great with lysosome. Plus, I love that the color scheme is simplistic. Great job girls on our infographic and congrats on your nomination!

    This a great piece because it shows, in part, the consequences of the absence or irregularity of lysosome activity. The police analogy was easy to understand and does a pretty good job of concisely describing that activity. Additional information could include where the lysosome evolved from, although it is not needed per se. I do wonder why only animals have this organelle.

    Very great and easy infographic, I remember learning about cell production along with cell failure in biology. There are so many little things that occur in human life along with any form of life that is so small but creates the whole species itself. Lysosome plays a major role in cell production along with cell regulation. There is so much going on in our bodies where things take care of themselves before any major effect occurs. Great work!
