In this example, you are interested in whether there is a relationship between the time of day and the activity of dolphins. Your data consist of Activity and Period (time of day) combinations, and the numbers of Groups of dolphins observed for each combination. Notice that Groups is a frequency column.

Figure 4.42 Mosaic Plot for Dolphin Activity
You can draw many conclusions from this graph. For example, the largest numbers of groups were observed in the morning or evening. There was proportionately more feeding activity in the evening than at any other time of day. No groups were observed feeding in the afternoon. Social behavior tended to occur in the morning.
