Answer:

Option 3 - Grignard reagents are strong bases and option 4 - Grignard reagents are strong nucleophiles

Explanation:

The carbon in grignard reagent has a very strong carbanionic character which gives grignard reaction it's unique characteristic of a strong base and strong nucleophile.

RCH_{2} - x + M_{g}  ⇒   RCH_{2}^{o- o+} Mgx
