Use the accompanying figure and information to answer the question(s) below.
-Which graph properly depicts the relationship between the amount of gas in the swim bladder and the density of the fish?
E) Graph with density on the x-axis and amount of gas in swim bladder on the y-axis. Both axes are unscaled, increasing. A line increases steeply from the origin and then flattens near the top of the y-axis.

The graph in Choice C properly depicts the relationship between the amount of gas in the swim bladder and the density of the fish. This is because the line on the graph increases steeply from the origin, indicating a strong positive correlation between the variables, and then flattens near the top of the y-axis, which suggests a plateau effect where increasing the amount of gas in the swim bladder does not significantly affect the density of the fish.
