Answer all questions in small one

Answer 1

1. Two similarities between the tables on infant mortality rates in Figures 1 and 2 could include: both tables likely present data for various countries or regions, and both highlight the disparities in infant mortality rates, demonstrating that certain areas experience significantly higher rates than others.

2. Some reasons why certain countries have high infant mortality rates may include limited access to healthcare services, inadequate maternal health care, high rates of poverty, and insufficient nutrition and sanitation facilities, which are critical for both mothers and infants.
