Solution

Its good to know about them.
Competitive exams will not test you on trivial names but again its there in the syllabus and they have asked in the past.
For example, in 2010 JEE exam, they asked a question that required the student to know what is a methylene group.

So, I would suggest you to learn them. they are easy.
