Imagine you are a research assistant in a lab that studies the evolution of sleep and the brain by looking at different animal species. A postdoctoral researcher in the lab shares shared with you the following graph that they made: sleep_rem 6- 2- 0- 10 sleep_total 15 20 msleep %>% ggplot(aes(x = sleep_total, y = sleep_rem, color geom_point() + theme_bw() vore carni herbi insecti omni On this graph, the points each represent a different species of mammal (like barn owls, donkeys, or baboons). The graph is meant to help compare the total hours of any sleep that animals in a species typically get in a day with the number of hours of REM sleep that animals in a species typically get in a day. The color of the points represents what kinds of "-vore" a species is: is it a carni-vore, herbi-vore, omni-vore, or insecti-vore? The postdoctoral researcher even shares the R code they used to make this graph: vore)) + This graph is decently pretty and shows a lot of information, but the graph isn't as useful if you print it out in black and white. Because of this, the postdoctoral researcher also created a second graph, it looks like this: sleep_rem 6- 2- 0- + + 10 sleep_total A + + 20 vore + carni herbi insecti omni This new graph is more useful than the first graph if you can't use color. Now, imagine that you want to re-create the second graph for youself by writing some R code. You want the different "-vores" to be depicted using the shape of points instead of the color of points. You have the R code for the first graph, but not the second graph. What do you think the R code would look like? For this question, your submission should just be the R code that you think would create the second graph. You can copy the code for the first graph and try to adapt whatever part seems like it would allow you to use different shapes on the graph. You don't need to use R (unless you want to). Simply look at the original code, and try to identify the part that needs to be changed, change it to what you suspect the code would look like. In the activity, you didn't see an example where shape was used instead of color to mark points, but you can make a good guess for how you'd do this -- it doesn't have to be perfect, but try to think through how it would work!
