Answer 1

First of all, make a dataframe of your data in R. Then follow the following step in R-

1. Use code attach(data), where data is the name of your dataframe say.

2. Then simply use plot function to plot between tadpoles and altitude using code "plot(tadpoles,altitude)"

The R code is given below

1 dat=read.table("C:/Users/Vikas/Desktop/dat.txt",header = T) ##here i save data in txt format

OR

use code "dat=read.table(file.choose,header = T)" and give location of your dataset

##we save the data with name dat
2 attach(dat) ## for directly accessing a variable from dataset "dat"
3 plot(Tadpoles,Altitude,type="l",col="red") ##for plotting the two variables
