C D FIGURE 8. Energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) linescan dataset. (A) EDS linescan site of interest BSE image in a cross-sectional view of a sea pen Cavernularia sp. axial skeleton acquired by INCA Energy software using same region as Figure 7, horizontal linescan through the middle of the axis was applied for EDS analysis to examine the distribution of elements along the line. (B) Element linescan result displaying grouped linescans as colored: carbon (red), oxygen (orange), fluorine (yellow), sodium (light green), magnesium (green), aluminum (aqua), sulfur (light blue), calcium (blue), strontium (purple), ytterbium (pink). (C) Sum spectrum of the linescan. Scale bar = 300 μm. (D) Bar chart of the quantitative results from the sum spectrum.
