According to the map, it can be inferred that the bias is the size of North America, which seems almost as big as Asia despite the fact that Asia is much larger (option D).
What is seen on the map?
The map shows a world map of the Earth showing the continents with political divisions of the countries. This map has the Mercator model, in which the real shapes of the countries are distorted.
What distortion is there in this map and why can it be considered bias?
Generally, in the maps with the Mercator model, the countries of the northern hemisphere have a larger size compared to the countries of the southern hemisphere. According to several psychologists and sociologists, this erroneous projection has effects on people's thinking because they consider that the countries of the northern hemisphere are more important and that is why they are the world powers.
On the other hand, we can see that North America is very large compared to Asia, it is almost the same size. However, in reality the surface of these two continents is very different because Asia is much larger.
