Data set day (all needed files should be either below or somewhere on this site. If you can't find something, ask).
For your benefit:
plot(bodymass$MassM,bodymass$RateM, xlim=c(20,75), ylim=c(600,2000), col="Blue")
points(bodymass$MassF,bodymass$RateF,col="Pink")
plot creates the plot. Points adds another set of data onto the same axes. I did not fancy this up--you will need to. Don't forget to load your data and to call it bodymass, obviously.
