The correct answer for this question is this one: "B. y" If y is an explanatory variable and z is the corresponding response variable, then y is represented by the horizontal axis and z is represented by the vertical axis.

Here are the following choices:
A. z
B. y
C. Both y and z
D. Neither y nor z
