45 Scientists conducted an investigation to study the possible effects of air pollution on
chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b in plants. The scientists gathered plants from polluted areas
and unpolluted areas and then measured the presence of chlorophyll in 50 mg of plant leaves.
The results are shown in the graph.
