The x-axis records the time periods The y-axis shows the percentages (from 0-100%) who are still alive. The most striking difference is in the plotted curves. These curves are cumulative: Starting with 0 in the lower left corner, moving across to the upper right corner, which approaches 100%; While survival begins at 100% in the upper left corner, and moves across to the lower right corner as members of the group die . |
