Answer:

aldehyde

Step-by-step explanation:

Aldehydes are a large class of reactive organic compounds (R-CHO) having a carbonyl functional group attached to one hydrocarbon radical and a hydrogen atom.

So, when terminal alkynes, for example, 1-heptyne react on Hydroboration oxidation(i.e. disiamylborane followed by treatment with basic hydrogen peroxide), the formation of aldehyde occurs.
