My second multimedia source is called “Genetic Engineering”. This source is a lecture given at Yale University about genetic engineering. The professor starts off by talking about DNA. He says that “DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms.” After talking about the structure of DNA for about twenty minutes, he goes on to talk about genetic engineering. He talks about how the parts of the DNA can be changed and altered to what we want it to be. He finishes his lecture by talking about the future in genetic engineering and how the food we eat can be affected also.

I actually learned a lot from this multimedia source. Even though the whole thing was just a lecture and some parts were boring, it still was interesting to the point where I could learn from it. I would definitely recommend anyone interested in genetic engineering to watch this lecture.
