Question

Draw the conjugate base resulting from removal of proton A, proton B, or proton C.

If the lone pair generated by deprotonation delocalizes by resonance, draw another resonance structure that results from delocalization of that lone pair. Include lone pairs and non-zero formal charge. 

The image depicts the chemical structure of a molecule with a focus on specific hydrogen atoms marked for analysis. 

Key features of the structure:
- The molecule is a ketone, indicated by the presence of a carbonyl group (\(C=O\)).
- The carbon chain is branched with a double bond, suggesting an unsaturated structure.
- Three distinct hydrogen atoms are labeled differently:
  - \(H_A\) is in blue, representing a hydrogen atom attached next to the carbonyl group.
  - \(H_B\) is in red, indicating a hydrogen on the carbon adjacent to the double bond.
  - \(H_C\) is in purple, labeling a hydrogen on a carbon that is part of the alkene (double bond).

These labeled hydrogens may be significant for discussions related to chemical reactivity, NMR spectroscopy, or molecular interactions.
