c. A functional region is an area of Earth's surface with boundaries that are based on an individual's perceptions, thoughts, and/or knowledge of people and their cultural traits, physical geography, and/or the build environment.

Apologies for the confusion. The correct answer is actually:

c. A functional region is an area of Earth's surface with boundaries that are based on an individual's perceptions, thoughts, and/or knowledge of people and their cultural traits, physical geography, and/or the built environment. A formal region is an area characterized by relatively unchanging cultural or physical traits, often associated with a clear boundary.
