Graphing Data

This year showed the lowest number of cases before the clinic was built in 2015

2011

This year had the highest number of cases during this period

2012

This year had the second highest number of cases

2014

After opening the new clinic, the Countryside Family Health System wanted to know how the change may have affected patients healthThey collected data on the numbers of serious influenza cases each year. Select the Influenza Cases by Year dataset and follow the interactive to graph the data. Match each description to the year that it describes best. This year showed the steepest drop in cases compared to the previous year

2015

This year showed the lowest number of cases during this time period

2018

The Lazy River Environmental Group organized a major cleanup of the pollution from the old factory in late 2010Measurements of pollution in river sediments before and after the cleanup were analyzed to determine the effectiveness of the cleanup. Select the Sediment Pollutant Over Time dataset and follow the interactive to graph the data .What statement best describes the results of the clean up?

There was an approximately two thirds drop in pollutant levels after the clean up, which further decreased in subsequent years

Before deciding to open a new clinicthe Countryside Family Health System wanted to know if more frequent visits might affect patients health careSelect the Vaccinations Visits dataset and the interactive to graph the What is the most appropriate graph type for this data, and why?

— scatter plot, because they were looking for a relationship between the number of clinics and number of vaccinations

The researchers in the mouse genetics lab wanted to know whether the differences in mouse in body mass in mutants was related to their differences in behavion they collected data for these variables from individual mutant male miceSelect the Body Mass vs. Running Duration dataset and follow the interactive to graph the data What can be concluded from this dataset ? Check all that apply

—Body mass appears to be correlated negatively with running duration —The mice that weigh less tend to run longer duration

A mouse genetics lab created a new mutant strain, and they noticed interesting behavioral and physiological differences in the mutant mice. Run two different datasetsRunning Duration and Body Mass and follow the Interactive to graph the data. What best describes the physiology and behavior of the mutant mice? (Check all that apply)

—More than half the mutant mice were in the two lightest weight bins —Both male and female mutant mice ran more minutes than the wildtype mice

The Countryside Family Health System serves rural populations. Before opening a new clinic in 2015many patients had to travel long distances to get access to health careSelect the Distance to Clinic dataset and follow the interactive to graph the data What statement(s) correctly describe the graph? (Check all that apply)

—The 2016 Data is shifted to the left compared to the 2012 Data —In 2016, 95% of patientshad a clinic within 50 miles —In 2012, over half the patients had a clinic over 30miles —In 2016, over half the patients had a clinic distance under 30 miles

The Lazy River Environmental Group is a group of fishermen and environmentalists that have worked to assess and clean up the pollution from an old factory on the Lazy RiverOne early study revealed that species on the river had absorbed pollutants from the water. Select the Pollutant Levels in Tissue , by Species dataset and follow the interactive to graph the data. Which statements) correctly describe the graph? (Check all that apply)

—The two species with the highest level are both fish —The fish species with the highest level was about 3 times the value of the fish species with the lowest level
