Mexico has the greatest number of diversity of animals and plants. That's why its an megadiverse country.
Earth was able to retain an atmosphere because of its gravity. It is <span>the same force that keeps us anchored to Earth. Molecules in our atmosphere are constantly moving, spurred on by energizing sunlight. If Earth were much less massive, gravity's grip would be weaker.</span>

Answer:
The explicit function is y = 6x + 2
Explanation:
Since the change in x, Δx is constant and Δx = 1 and also, the change in y, Δy is constant and Δy = 6, we use the equation of a straight line in gradient form.
So, (y - y₁)/(x - x₁) = Δy/Δx where x₁ = 1 and y₁ = 8
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
(y - y₁)/(x - x₁) = Δy/Δx
(y - 8)/(x - 1) = 6/1
(y - 8)/(x - 1) = 6
cross-multiplying, we have
(y - 8) = 6(x - 1)
expanding the brackets, we have
y - 8 = 6x - 6
adding 8 to both sides of the equation, we have
y - 8 + 8 = 6x - 6 + 8
y + 0 = 6x + 2
y = 6x + 2
So, the explicit function is y = 6x + 2
The answer is lithosphere.
Earthquakes are caused by shifts in the outer layers of Earth—a region called the lithosphere.
