Identify the functional groups present in each molecule. A 19-carbon compound is composed of one five-membered ring and three six-membered rings.
Carbon 3 is double bonded to an oxygen and attached to carbon 2 and carbon 4.
Carbon 17 is attached to an oxygen, which is attached to a hydrogen.
i. hydroxyl group
ii. carboxyl group
iii. carbonyl group
A central carbon is attached to an amine, two hydrogens, and a carbon that is double bonded to an oxygen and single bonded to an oxygen attached to a hydrogen.
i. amino group
ii. carboxyl group
iii. amide group

Carbon 3 is double bonded to an oxygen and attached to carbon 2 and carbon 4. :

Carbonyl group ( Ketone or aldehyde)

Carbon 17 is attached to an oxygen, which is attached to a hydrogen. :

Carboxyl group (Carboxylic acid)

A central carbon is attached to an amine, two hydrogens, and a carbon that is double bonded to an oxygen and single bonded to an oxygen attached to a hydrogen. :

Amide group

An amide group contains both amine and carboxyl

1. the question asks the most appropriate, which seems to rule out "all of the above." your choice appears to be the correct one.

2. the protocol described is good for identifying correlation, but not cause and effect. for cause/effect, you need to devise a protocol that will assign the treatment (or not) to groups that have essentially the same "demographics" with respect to all the other variables. your choice regarding control group seems appropriate. random assignment of treatment (choice d) may be appropriate also. (i think you can argue that b and d are just different descriptions of the same method.)

3. d will randomize the birds, but may not guarantee there are 10 in each group. e will do both, so seems the better choice.

comment on question 2

based on the problem statement, it seems clear that confident, attentive drivers are more likely to use daytime running lights. so, the protocol might need to be devised in such a way that the lights would be turned on or off without the driver's knowledge. (an attentive driver will figure it out.) assigning a confident, attentive driver to a group required to drive without running lights might mess with his/her confidence and attentiveness. you don't want your experiment to do that. (nor do you want the experiment to subject a driver to greater risk of accident as a consequence of driving without running lights.) experiments involving human safety are always problematic.
