Figure 3
The vertical axis represents “Exaptation” and ranges from 2 to 5 in increments of 0.5 units. The horizontal axis features two primary categories: “Low exploitative learning” and “High exploitative learning”. Two lines are shown. The legend at the top identifies the solid line with diamond markers as “Low knowledge scope” and the dashed line with square markers as “High knowledge scope”. The line for “Low knowledge scope” starts at the starting point (Low, 2.4) and moves in a slight upward direction with a steady increasing point to reach an ending point at (High, 2.65). The line for “High knowledge scope” starts at the starting point (Low, 2.6) and moves in a steep upward direction with a significant increasing point to reach an ending point at (High, 3.5). Note: All data numerical values are approximated.Moderating effect of knowledge scope on the relationship between exploitative learning and exaptation
