Answer:

B. Aromatic

Step-by-step explanation:

Functional groups are groups that differentiate a specific organic compound from others. A functional group determines the chemical property of the compound that possesses it.

For example, just like alkene and alcohol functional groups have characteristics double bond (=) and hydroxyl (OH) group respectively, the image in the attachment of this question has a BENZENE RING at the core of its structure, hence, the organic compound can be regarded to have an AROMATIC FUNCTIONAL GROUP.
