The graph depicts the effect of RIP (a compound) on cell survival across four types of cancer: liver, skin, prostate, and breast. **Graph Explanation:** - **Axes:** - The x-axis represents the concentration of RIP in micrograms per liter (µg/liter). - The y-axis indicates cell survival percentage (%). - **Data Points:** - **Liver Cancer (▲):** Starts around 100% survival, slightly decreases as RIP concentration increases. - **Skin Cancer (●):** Begins near 100% survival, sharply decreases to near 0% at higher concentrations. - **Prostate Cancer (■):** Starts around 100% and decreases gradually with concentration. - **Breast Cancer (♦):** Shows a minor decline, maintaining higher survival rates than the other cancers. - **Trends:** - Skin cancer cells are highly sensitive to RIP, with survival drastically dropping as the concentration increases. - Prostate, liver, and breast cancer cell survivals are less affected, showing moderate decreases. - **Conclusion:** - RIP has varying effectiveness on different cancer types, with significant impact on skin cancer cell survival.
