Explanation:

By observing the bar - heights in the graph representing proportion of soil organic carbon for different mangrove tree heights. The bar for intermediate trees is the tallest, followed by the bar for tallest trees, and then the bar for shortest trees.

Answer:

Amount of carbon in the soil was greatest near the intermediate trees, followed by the tallest, and then shortest trees.
