Final answer:

The Mercator projection includes the region in which Japan is located.

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the given options, the view of the globe that includes the region in which Japan is located is the Mercator projection.

The Mercator projection is a cylindrical projection that preserves the shape of countries and landmasses, but distorts their size as you move away from the equator. While it accurately shows the entire world, it exaggerates the size of landmasses near the poles, including Japan.
