### Identification of Alkenes

**Question 24 of 31:**
Which of the following molecules can be classified as an alkene?

**Options:**
A) Compound A  
B) Compound B  
C) Compound C  
D) Compound D

#### Diagram Details:
The image presents four different chemical compounds labeled as A, B, C, and D. These compounds are depicted with their respective chemical structures inside a boxed diagram. Each compound contains various functional groups such as hydroxyl (OH) groups and amino (NH2) groups, in addition to carbon and hydrogen atoms. Below is a detailed explanation of each compound's structure:

- **Compound A:** Contains a double bond between two carbon atoms (C=C), representing an alkene group, with an additional hydroxyl (OH) group attached to one of the carbon atoms in the double bond.

- **Compound B:** Features a hydroxyl (OH) group and an amino (NH2) group bound to carbon atoms but lacks a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C).

- **Compound C:** Shows a carbonyl group (C=O) attached to a benzene ring, with an amino (NH2) group attached to the benzene ring, not featuring a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C).

- **Compound D:** Demonstrates a hydroxyl (OH) group and an amino (NH2) group, with no carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) present.  

Given the presence of a carbon-carbon double bond in Compound A, it can be classified as an alkene. Hence, the correct answer is:
**A) Compound A**.
