Can you please help answer this question base on the graph it shows?
Using the data below from a decomposition experiment in Canada, where rates of
decomposition were measured at sites A-U, which of the following would be the
reasonable interpretation(s) of the results:

Mean annual temperature (°C)
O Respiration rates are consistent across all sites.
If the climate changes led to increased mean annual temperature the decomposition rates
would increase.
O All of the others are correct.
O Moving samples from their original site to a colder climate would decrease decomposition
rates more for samples that were originally from site U more than site A.
O Photosynthesis is likely highest at the warmest sites.
Percent of mass lost
