The condition that most likely accounts for extreme poverty and economic disparity in Southeast Asia is:

**competition among workers for too few jobs and low wages**

While factors like resource scarcity and isolationism can contribute to economic challenges, competition for limited employment opportunities and low wages directly impacts poverty levels and economic disparity in the region.

Without the ability to view the image you mentioned, I can suggest possible answers based on common environmental challenges in Southeast Asia that might be related to activities in the region.

If the activity depicted is related to human actions such as logging or urban development, the most directly related environmental challenges could likely be:

1. **deforestation** - This is often a result of land clearing for agriculture or urbanization.
2. **flooding** - Deforestation and urbanization can lead to increased runoff and reduced natural flood control, contributing to flooding.

If the activity shown involves natural geological processes, then the correct answers might include volcanic activity or earthquakes.

If you can provide more details about the activity shown in the image, I can offer a more precise answer!

Rapid Response area in Southeast Asia puts too much burden on infrastructure and services in cities. This leads to increasing Response area among rich and poor and can lead to political conflict. Response area areas also suffer greater risks in the event of natural disasters.

disparities
equalities
overpopulated
underpopulated
emigration
urbanization

Based on the context of your statement, the appropriate terms to fill in the blanks would be:

1. "This leads to increasing **disparities** among rich and poor and can lead to political conflict."
2. "Response **overpopulated** areas also suffer greater risks in the event of natural disasters."

So the updated sentence would read:

"Rapid Response area in Southeast Asia puts too much burden on infrastructure and services in cities. This leads to increasing **disparities** among rich and poor and can lead to political conflict. Response **overpopulated** areas also suffer greater risks in the event of natural disasters."

what's all three of them?

To fill in all three blanks with appropriate terms, here's a version of your statement with suitable words:

"Rapid **urbanization** in Southeast Asia puts too much burden on infrastructure and services in cities. This leads to increasing **disparities** among rich and poor and can lead to political conflict. **Overpopulated** areas also suffer greater risks in the event of natural disasters."

Here, the three terms used are:

1. **urbanization**
2. **disparities**
3. **overpopulated**
