c.

d.

The correct answer is D. The challenge to democracy shared by both Brazil and Mexico is that crime and corruption are serious problems in government.

Explanation:

Brazil and Mexico are the two most populous countries in Latin America, therefore also the largest economies in the continent. They are therefore the second and third largest market in the Americas after the United States, but with a much lower government revenue (both countries combined do not even reach a third of the US GDP, but do match it in population).

This situation means that in both countries there is a large number of people and a government with very little GDP per capita, therefore, less investment in security, infrastructure, education and health, among others. This in turn leads to a situation of poverty and deprivation much greater than in the United States, which creates the perfect breeding ground for crime. Therefore, both countries have (as is widely known) serious problems with drug trafficking, and high rates of robbery and murder.

In addition, the lack of collection generates a lack of effective control by the government, which ends up resulting in high levels of corruption because there is no effective system of checks and balances within the government itself.

"the location of the epicenter" would be the correct answer

iii. and iv. only is the right answer
