Answer:

B,) a carboxylic acid and an amine

Step-by-step explanation:

A functional group is an atom or group of atoms inside a molecule that has comparable chemical properties anytime it appears in numerous compounds. When other parts of the molecule are not similar, some functional groups react in certain manners.

Carboxylic acid is a carbonyl-containing functional group, with carbon atom bonded to an hydroxyl group on one side and on the other side is either a carbon or hydrogen atom.

An amine group is composed of a nitrogen atom bonded to a combination of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
