Remake of Data Detectives: What on Earth is Happening? by Lyla Cairns https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao First, look through each of the graphs and complete the yellow boxes to write down the independent variable (the x axis label) and the dependent variable (the y axis/graph line label), and then describe the trend shown by the graph. Then, look through the green hypotheses to match up each graph with the relevant hypothesis, and then state if the hypothesis is correct or incorrect and explain why using evidence from the graph to back up your opinion. en-us 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC 2026-03-18 13:02:08 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f9d0.png Graph 10 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099878 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099878 Graph 1 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099879 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099879 Graph 6 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099880 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099880 Graph 4 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099881 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099881 Graph 5 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099883 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099883 Graph 2 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099884 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099884 Graph 3 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099885 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099885 Graph 9 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099886 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099886 Graph 8 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099887 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099887 Do not scroll further down past this point! lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099888 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099888 Graph 7 lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099889 2023-02-15 20:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099889 Graph 1 Analysis lcairns26 https://padlet.com/lcairns26/4gnwrmjqa948utao/wish/2484099890

    Explain your answer, using the graph as evidence: The human bar is the largest, which means they contribute to global warming the most.
