Solution

The correct option is A 3-Aminohept-5-enoic acid
By IUPAC rules,
Principle functional group must be included in the longest continuous carbon chain. Thus, carboxylic acid group should be in the carbon chain while numbering.
COOH is higher in priority than NH2
Suffix used for -COOH group is -oic acid.
Prefix used for NH2 is amino
Also double bond is present at 5th position.
Since longest carbon chain is of 7 carbon so word root is hept. Hence, IUPAC name is 3-Aminohept-5-enoic acid.
