Have you replaced the SSD with a non-Apple SSD? The Monterey upgrade includes an update to the Mac's firmware and that requires that an Apple SSD be installed.
Those volumes on your startups disk are normal is the newer macOS' like Monterey since they are formatted in APSF.

Try booting to Recovery and do first Aid on the SSD.

I don't think I changed the SSD to a non-Apple SSD, but I saw in Disk Utility that I have a Container disk that contains a 'mac' and 'mac data'. Does this mean that there is a problem with my SSD? How should I install an Apple SSD?
Thank you very much~
But "do first Aid on the SSD." you mean the step"Reinstall macOS: Download and reinstall the Mac operating system."? I tried this before, but error 69716 is still displayed when updating to Monterey.
