The correct order of terms to match the definitions provided is:

**formal region** (an area on Earth’s surface defined by relatively unchanging cultural or physical traits, often associated with a formal boundary)
**functional region** (an area on Earth’s surface defined by one or more linkages and activities occurring in that area)
**perceptual region** (an area on Earth’s surface with boundaries that are based on an individual’s perception, thoughts, and/or knowledge of people and their cultural traits, physical geography, and/or the built environment)

So the correct response is:

**formal region, functional region, perceptual region**.
