Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

According to the `IUPAC` system of nomenclature, ethers are regarded as hydrocarbon derivatives in which a `H` atom is replaced by `an-OR` or `-Oar` group, where `R` and `Ar` represent alkyl and aryl groups respectively. The larger `(R )` group is chosen as the parent hydrocarbon.
