Solution
Yes they are included in alkyl group. Propane has three carbons and eight hydrogens. If one of the six end hydrogens is replaced by a bond to something else, you end up with a normal propyl group. If one of the two middle hydrogens is replaced by a bond to something else, you end up with an isopropyl group.
