Final answer:

The answer maps phrases to property types: Earth's oceans are a Common Property, a jointly owned fishing ground is Private Property, and something with no defined owner is considered Public Property.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given phrases can be matched with the correct type of property as follows:

  1. A large portion of Earth's oceans - Common Property
  2. A shared fishing ground jointly owned and controlled by multiple individuals - Private Property
  3. No defined owner - Public Property

  • Common Property is a type of resource like earth's oceans and shared fishing grounds that is accessible to all members of a community. It is not excludable and can be finite.
  • Public Property refers to goods that have no defined owner and are accessible to the public, such as the air we breathe.
  • On the other hand, Private Property is owned by individuals or firms and can be used at their discretion.
