Essay / Analysis: Ancient Food Pyramid - 1594
Ancient Food Pyramid (1)1. The message goes straight to the point. It tells exactly how much of a certain group a person should eat or drink. There are not too many words in each section, making it easy for a person to read everything.2. The designs of some of the group's items provide excellent examples for those unfamiliar with certain products. Although a pie chart could be used as a complement to the drawing, it would distract a person's attention from the actual pyramid factor. The design is the base of a pyramid, with the smallest amount at the top. The colors represent the different foods or drinks involved in this topic. Therefore, colors are used appropriately for the examples.4. I think the orange border on the left side of the post is divided into several parts that explain in detail the different colors of the pyramid. The wording is simplistic and is aimed at an audience of all ages. 2. The person going through the period tells us a story that we need to get to the top by eating right. I think a pie chart would be more adequate to describe the story. The reason is that a pie chart shows a better distribution of how much of a certain group a person should eat. 3. Yes, it represents a pyramid, but it doesn't need stairs. Although this represents physical activity, some people might be under the impression that the USDA says that steps are the best exercise. The colors are ok, except the yellow color. This is because a person could barely read the white words "oil" in the yellow caption. The dots connected to the dotted lines might be confusing to some. The dots and lines that go to the person (personalization) and the color orange (both moderation and variety) can make a person cross-eyed. Unless a person reads each paragraph and then searches for the associated line, they will be able to match words with words. The numbers on the side could go up to 250. This would give us a better indication of the sub-Saharan African bars in the 1900 and 1930 fields. Accidents versus Diseases (4)1. The paragraphs give a better description of the story rather than the pyramid. Yes, the smaller the deaths should be, the higher the top of the pyramid, since it is the top of the object.2. A painting would better represent this story. There should be two tables (accidents and illnesses). Then each table could be divided by each subject. There would be two columns in each table (subject and number of deaths).3. The design of the visual is distorted as the cancer and heart disease sections are the same width. Although the colors red and pink are dangerous, I don't think they should alternate the same two colors. Different shades of pink to red could show that the numbers are increasing.4. The histogram with people could be removed. Only figures representing the number of deaths should be displayed. Who will really count each person?5. The total should be closer to, say, 2,450,000, since the actual number is 2,448,228. The figure should indicate the year of the survey, because I know from the news that people have died from bird flu and mad cow disease. (Pandemic101, 2011) and (Mehta,
