please help solve the second one
![**Instructions:**
**A.** Determine the number of electrons in a system of cyclic conjugation (zero if no cyclic conjugation).
**B.** Specify whether the species is "a"-aromatic, "aa"-anti-aromatic, or "na"-non-aromatic (neither aromatic nor anti-aromatic).
(Presume rings to be planar unless the structure obviously prevents planarity. If there is more than one conjugated ring, count electrons in the largest.)
---
**1.**
- **Structure:** A heterocyclic compound with two nitrogen atoms and a methyl group attached.
- **A. Electrons in a cyclic conjugated system:** 6
- **B. The compound is (a, aa, or na):** a
---
**2.**
- **Structure:** A phenyl group attached to an oxygen with a lone pair, forming a ketone-like structure.
- **A. Electrons in a cyclic conjugated system:** [Blank space]
- **B. The compound is (a, aa, or na):** [Blank space]

**Explanation for Graphs/Diagrams:**
1. **Diagram 1:** Displays a six-membered aromatic ring (likely a pyridine derivative) with nitrogen atoms and a methyl group indicating conjugated pi-electron systems.
2. **Diagram 2:** Displays a benzene ring with a ketone group at one of the carbons along the ring, showing potential delocalization of pi electrons involving the oxygen.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4ff02d2e-23e6-4c2f-ba0a-04d5e3b9a917%2F40312e9c-7b45-4c15-8a2e-106f3cfb1e74%2Frt6gg4m_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
