1. What feature of the spice is shown on the x-axis? Why does the x-axis only go up to 1.0?

Each spice was tested to see whether it could kill or inhibit the growth of more than 30 species of common food-borne bacteria. The x-axis represents the proportion of those species killed or inhibited by the spice. The x-axis is calibrated in fractions of a whole, so the final value is 1.0. Thus, in this graph 1.0 means that all of the species of bacteria tested were killed or inhibited by the spice.
