The line chart given provides a comparison of the amount of fish and some different types of meats consumed in a European nation from 1979 to 2004.
From an overall perspective, it is evident that while the consumption of chicken showed an upward trend over the period supplied, a reverse pattern could be observed in the figures for the remaining types of food.
At the beginning of the period shown, the amount of beef consumption was highest, at approximately 220 grams. The figures for chicken and lamb were lower, at around 140 grams and exactly 150 grams, respectively. By contrast, fish accounted for the lowest number, at around 60 grams.
In the following years, the total amount of chicken that people used remarkably increased and reached its peak at about 240 grams in 2004, whereas that of fish witnessed a steady decrease to roughly 50 grams. Turning to the remaining two groups, after getting the highest point in 1984, at 240 grams, the data on beef fell rapidly to 110 grams in 2005. In addition, the consumption of lamb experienced a sharp decline to 80 grams at the end of the provided time frame.
