Statin side effects: Weigh the benefits and risks. Statin side effects: Weigh the benefits and risks. Statin side effects can be uncomfortable, making it seem like the risks outweigh the benefits of these powerful cholesterol-lowering medications.
The independent variable is the amount of light and the moth's reaction is the dependent variable. A change in the independent variable directly causes a change in the dependent variable. If the dependent and independent variables are plotted on a graph, the x-axis would be the independent variable and the y-axis would be the dependent variable.
The y-axis is vertical with values increasing from bottom to top. axis equal sets the aspect ratio so that the data units are the same in every direction. The aspect ratio of the x-, y-, and z-axis is adjusted automatically according to the range of data units in the x, y, and z directions. axis image is the same as axis equal except that the plot box fits tightly around the data. axis square makes the current axes region square (or cubed when three-dimensional). MATLAB adjusts the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis so that they have equal lengths and adjusts the increments between data units accordingly.
