question 5
what is the only landlocked nation in east asia?
○ taiwan
○ north korea
○ mongolia
○ japan

Explanation:

To determine the only landlocked nation in East Asia, we analyze each option:

• Taiwan is a provincial administrative region of China, not an independent nation.
• North Korea has a coastline along the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea, so it is not landlocked.
• Japan is an island nation with extensive coastlines.
• Mongolia is located between China and Russia, with no access to the sea, making it the only landlocked nation in East Asia.

Answer:

C. Mongolia
