Answer
Correct option: B.
Functional group
Functional groups are specific substituents or moieties within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules.
Examples : $\ce{−OH, −COOH, −COOR}$ etc.
Hence, the atom or the group of atoms by which the characteristic reactions of organic compounds are determined, that atom or group of atoms is called functional group.
