The independent variable (reference value = measured height in the erect position) defines the vertical axis, and the dependent variable (tested method) defines the horizontal axis.
Set the Vertical Axis to Default Axis.
Superficially resembling the structures of some higher plants, stonewort structures include rootlike rhizoids, whorls of branches at regular intervals, and an erect cylindrical axis, which may be surrounded by a sheath of small cells.
