Option C is the way to go. More environments means more data, and that's what we need to really understand the patterns of aggression. Plus, it's the most straight-forward approach.

B is a bit overkill, don't you think? A week's worth of data is a lot, especially for a simple graph like this.

Equal interval graph, huh? That could work, but I'm not sure it would really clarify the differentiation. Seems like a cop-out answer to me.

D seems like a strange choice. Why would we change the vertical axis range? Seems like it would just distort the data.

I agree with Diane, more data will provide a clearer picture of the differentiation in aggression frequency.

I think we should record data for an entire week to get a better understanding.

Option C looks good. More environments means more data to analyze the trends. Can't argue with that.

Changing the vertical axis range to zero to twenty could make the differences in aggression frequency more apparent.
