Claim
The team claims that dense ground cover shows a sustained increase in afternoon humidity from baseline through follow-up.
Relevant evidence
In the categorical comparison: dense ground cover rises at every measurement, from 18 % at baseline to 34 % at follow-up.
Relevant data
dense ground cover: 18, 22, 28, 34 %
bare soil: 42, 38, 34, 30 %
Why it bears on the claim
The selected values directly support the claim using the correct categories, series, and units.
Why this choice?
Correct. The statement cites the exact relevant values and directly supports the supplied claim.
Why this choice?
This statement uses values from a real category in the graphic, but that category or time point does not test the full claim.
Why this choice?
This statement reads a valid value from the wrong series or reports one series without the required contrast.
Why this choice?
This statement makes a mathematically valid but evidentially irrelevant comparison, so it does not establish the claimed relationship.

Passage
the borrowed lantern
In a hypothetical literature investigation of Theo in an original story, researchers recorded the original synthetic data shown in the bar graph. The fictional dataset records confidence in her guidance for two named conditions across four measurements. The team claims that the gap in confidence in her guidance between handing Amara the lantern and keeping the lantern narrows across the four measurements.
Correct answerIn the categorical comparison: The conditions' gap narrows from 24 gestures at baseline to 4 gestures at follow-up.

Claim
The team claims that the gap in confidence in her guidance between handing Amara the lantern and keeping the lantern narrows across the four measurements.
Relevant evidence
In the categorical comparison: The conditions' gap narrows from 24 gestures at baseline to 4 gestures at follow-up.
Relevant data
handing Amara the lantern: 33, 37, 43, 49 gestures
keeping the lantern: 57, 53, 49, 45 gestures
Why it bears on the claim
The selected values directly illustrate the claim using the correct categories, series, and units.
Why this choice?
Correct. The statement cites the exact relevant values and directly illustrates the supplied claim.
Why this choice?
This statement uses values from a real category in the graphic, but that category or time point does not test the full claim.
Why this choice?
This statement reads a valid value from the wrong series or reports one series without the required contrast.
Why this choice?
This statement makes a mathematically valid but evidentially irrelevant comparison, so it does not establish the claimed relationship.
Explanation
In the categorical comparison: The conditions' gap narrows from 24 gestures at baseline to 4 gestures at follow-up. This comparison directly addresses the relationship and scope specified in the claim.

Passage
stream-stone shape
In a hypothetical science investigation of aquatic insects, researchers recorded the original synthetic data shown in the bar graph. The fictional dataset records insects retained after high flow for two named conditions across four measurements. The team claims that flat stream stones exceeds rounded stream stones in insects retained after high flow by follow-up.
Correct answerIn the categorical comparison: At follow-up, flat stream stones reaches 39 %, exceeding rounded stream stones at 32 %.

bus-clinic extension
In a hypothetical history social studies investigation of transit riders, researchers recorded the original synthetic data shown in the bar graph. The fictional dataset records trips ending near the clinic for two named conditions across four measurements. The team claims that a route extended near a clinic changes more across the measurement period than the earlier route.
Correct answerIn the categorical comparison: a route extended near a clinic changes by 22 trips, while the earlier route changes by 12 trips in the opposite direction.
