Correlation between galaxies’ offsets from the star formation law (as indicated by the Y-axis ﹩{\tau }_{\mathrm{mol}\mathrm{gas}}/{\tau }_{\mathrm{mol}\mathrm{gas},\mathrm{MS}\mathrm{SF}\mathrm{law}}﹩) and from the galaxy MS (as indicated by the X-axis ﹩\mathrm{sSFR}/{\mathrm{sSFR}}_{\mathrm{MS}}﹩) for four stellar mass bins as labeled. We adopt the Sargent et al. (2014) SF law and Speagle et al. (2014) MS (adopting a different MS from Sargent et al. (2014) will only result in a small shift of −0.16, −0.24, −0.17, and −0.05 dex in the X direction (and smaller offsets in the Y direction) for the four panels, respectively). Symbol shapes are the same as in Figure 9 and are color coded by ﹩{\mathrm{log}}_{10}\,\mathrm{SFR}﹩. The black line is the predicted median trend from the 2-SFM framework by Sargent et al. (2014). The gray shaded area indicates a 0.3 dex scatter in both X and Y.
