The results shown on the graph show that there is a strong positive correlation between the average rate of conductivity and the surface area: volume ratio. As the surface area of the Agar cube increases‚ the rate of conductivity will steadily increase‚ too. The trend line of the graph shows as an exponential graph because at one point there will be no more conductivity due to too small or too big Agar cubes. A difference can be seen in the average rate of conductivity depending on surface area
