Do these data identify the cause of atherosclerosis in the mice? Explain (Note that "causation" means that one event is responsible for the occurrence of the other, while "correlation" means that the two events appear to occur together).

The atherosclerosis is the abnormality which is faced by the living being inside its circulatory system. As the circulation system faces disabilities in driving the medium through the different pathways or arteries inside the living organism's body. As the atherosclerosis involves the narrowing of the arteries. It is mainly due to the deposition of the trans fats in the circulatory system.

Graph:

As the graph is comprised of the trans fats concentration in the blood medium on the x-axis and the percentage of artery atherosclerosis on the y-axis. As the graph represents the correlation between the rate or possibility of the having atherosclerosis inside mice, while having the concentration of the trans fats in the blood medium. As the chance or the possibility of contracting the atherosclerosis in the mice all depends upon the factors like age, sex, and weight of the living beings.
