Answer : The correct option is, (C) a carbon chain with a carbonyl group bonded to one end.

Explanation :

An aldehyde is an organic compound which contain a functional group with (-CHO) i.e R-CHO

R-CHO functional group consists of a carbonyl center that means a carbon which is double-bonded to the oxygen. The carbon of this carbonyl group bonded with the hydrogen to one end and a carbon chain, (R) to another end.

Some examples of an aldehydes are formaldehyde $(HCHO)$ , acetaldehyde $(CH_3CHO)$

Therefore, the correct answer is, (C)

What are some examples of monomers and oligomers?
Organic molecules, such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids, are made of simple subunits called monomers. Plasticizers are oligomeric esters widely used to soften thermoplastics such as PVC and urethane acrylate .

If a chemical compound accelerates and regulates metabolic reactions, which type of role does it play - structural or physiological?
I believe the function that it plays would be physiological since it focuses more on the regulation of the reactions inside the body.
