Answer:

A: (Z)-3-chloro-4-ethyl-2,5-dimethyl-3-hexene

B: (cis)-3-chloro-4-ethyl-2,5-dimethyl-3-hexene

Step-by-step explanation:

The two two heavier groups around the double bond are chlorine and isopropyl.

Both of these heavier groups are on the same side therefore, they are designated as cis or Z conformer.
