What is the correct order of the words in the blanks in the following sentences?

If there are unshared pairs of electrons on the atoms directly attached to the aromatic ring, they are the groups that provide electrons to the ring with the effect of ……………… and are ………………… directive towards electrophiles. Groups that are double bonded to a more electronegative atom than the atoms directly attached to the ring are ……… steers that withdraw electrons from the ring with the effect of .................. Groups whose electronegativity is higher than the sp2 carbon of the ring directly attached to the ring will withdraw electrons from the ring as ............. and ……… they are routers. Halogens, on the other hand, withdraw electrons from the ring as ………......... due to their high electronegativity and are ……….. directing.

A. Inductive/(o-, p-)/ inductive/(m-)/ inductive/(o-, p-)/ inductive/(o-, p-)

B. Resonance/(o-, p-)/ resonance/(m-)/ resonance/(m-)/ resonance/(o-, p-) C. Resonance/(o-, p-)/ resonance/(m-)/ inductive/(o-, p-)/ inductive/(o-, p-) D. Resonance/(o-, p-)/ resonance/(m-)/ inductive/(o-, p-)/ inductive/(m-)

E. Resonance/(o-, p-)/ resonance/(m-)/ inductive/(m-)/ inductive/(o-, p-)
