Generate an image that visually depicts the concept of two variables being negatively correlated. Picture a graph showcasing two data lines: one line steadily rising from left to right, representing an increasing variable, and another line simultaneously falling from left to right, symbolizing a decreasing variable. The backdrop should be light, with grid lines faintly drawn. The increasing line should be colored vibrant red and the decreasing line should be a cool shade of blue. Please ensure there is no text in the image.

Answers have changed as of 4-18-2022, here are the new ones:

1. Use the scenario to answer the question.
One variable increases, then the other increases, as well.
Which term would best describe this scenario?
***positive correlation

2. Which kind of evidence is used by scientists to understand the intermediate states between an ancestral form and that of its descendants?
***transitional fossils

3. Use the scenario to answer the question.
By studying the limbs and fossils of different animals, such as a horse leg and a human leg, scientists have noticed that there are similarities in their bone structures. This is evidence that their bone structures and limbs may have evolved in similar ways.
Which statement is true about this scenario?
***The scenario is describing a relationship known as correlation.

4. Use the scenario to answer the question.
A fossil indicates that whales might have started out as small land mammals. This animal was about the size of a wolf and had a diet of meat and fish. While the fossil has the body of a land animal, its head is shaped like a whale with an ear bone that is unique to whales.
Which statement is likely true about the fossil?
***It is a transitional fossil that shows correlation.

5. When Charles Darwin published his book On the Origin of Species, he addressed his theory of descent with modification through
***natural selection.

Thanks tardis and Awsome kid you guys really helped

ill be ur friend
