Fig. 10. The Araneus FL silk values for
Fh/F (black triangles) and
Fe/F (open triangles) from
Fig. 8 are plotted against
extension. The most negative outliers from
Fig. 8 have been omitted in
order to better view the trend about zero on the force axis. The values of
Fh/F and
Fe/F have each been fitted to a linear
regression; neither regression has a slope significantly different from
zero.
