Even if that’s what’s happening, OP’s graph is still disingenuous then. I mean, the representative picture for Disney is a Lucasfilm movie, a separate studio owned by Disney. It also appears that the Disney bar includes Pixar profits, which is also a separate studio owned by Disney.

So why include some under the parent but not others? What is the criteria? It’s a poor choice of data display.

Electricity is so bad at killing microorganisms in small amounts that in lab sciences we actually use it to introduce new DNA into them through a process called Electroporation. Basically, you send electricity into a solution that contains your microorganism and the new DNA you want it to have, and you zap the solution to cause pores to form in its cell membrane. These holes are big enough to allow the DNA to enter. It’s a very useful technique.
