Write a note on false base line.

1.	Write a note on false base line.
Answer» Generally X and Y-axes begin from zero ie, the origin is at zero. When lowest value to be plotted is high and detailed scale needed to study all the variations in the data taking zero at the origin becomes impractical. Hence, if the fluctuations in the variable are too small, or if the lowest value of the variable is large, the False Base Line should be used, Here False Base Line can be shown by vertical wavy line between zero and first scale or the axes can be broken by kinked line.
