Based on the maximum body volume of organisms preserved in the fossil record, body volume (as measured in log mm) has increased over the last 3.5 billion years. The trend in growth over time is depicted in the graph where the x-axis is a measure of time in millions of years ago. Three boxes, each associated with a vertical dotted line that marks specific time points along the x- axis, have been provided. Place a check mark in the boxes to indicate when drastic increases in atmospheric oxygen are likely to have occurred.

Help this was wrong

The text accompanying the graph reads:

"Based on the maximum body volume of organisms preserved in the fossil record, body volume (as measured in log mm³) has increased over the last 3.5 billion years. The trend in growth over time is depicted in the graph where the x-axis is a measure of time in millions of years ago. Three boxes, each associated with a vertical dotted line that marks specific time points along the x-axis, have been provided. Place a check mark in the boxes to indicate when drastic increases in atmospheric oxygen are likely to have occurred."

### Graph Description:

- **X-Axis (Horizontal):** Represents time in millions of years ago, ranging from approximately 4,000 to 0.
- **Y-Axis (Vertical):** Represents body volume in log mm³.
- **Line Graph:** A red line indicates the trend of increasing body volume over time.
- **Key Points on the Graph:**
  - A gradual increase in body volume is observed as time progresses towards the present.
  - There are distinct periods marked by peaks and increases in body volume.
  - Vertical dotted lines mark specific time periods on the x-axis where significant changes occur.
- **Interactive Component:** There are three boxes above the graph for users to place a check mark, indicating periods when drastic increases in atmospheric oxygen may have occurred, aligned with significant increases in body volume. One box is already checked.
