Question

The slope for the cephalopod (log body mass=x axis, log foot mass= y ) was .9508. The slope for the bivalve (log body mass=x axis, log foot mass= y )was 1.2815

What conclusion can be drawn from a comparison of the squid and clam data? [2 pt]

the cephalopod foot becomes proportionately smaller in larger individuals
the bivalve foot becomes proportionately larger in smaller individuals

Answer 1

The bivalve foot becomes proportionately larger in smaller individuals

Step-by-step explanation:

The bivalve foot is a muscular appendage that enables the animals to dig in across the sandy surfaces. This structure is adapted to life stile and movement, being reduced in animals like oysters that live permanently attached to the rocks
