When nucleophile encounters a ketone site of attack is

Aldehydes and ketones are amphoteric. Thus they can act both as acids and bases. Under acidic conditions, the carbon of the protonated canbonyl group is much more electrophilic, reacting even with weak nucleopphilie. Carbonyl compound gives nucleophilic addition reaction. In this reaction the nucleophilic attack proceeds the elecrophilic attack. Which of the statements are//is correct?

Write the reaction between nucleophiles and carbonyl group. why are ketones less reactive towards nucleophilic than the aldehydes ?

Assertion: Aldehyde and keton ungergo nucleophilic addition reaction with carbon nucleophile and undergo nucleophilic addition-climination reaction with nitrogen Nucleophile. Reason : Addition of nuclephile on aldehyde and keton form retrahedral intermediate , in case of tertahedral intermediate of nitrogen nucleophile nonbonding molecule to eliminate while in case of carbon and hydrogen nucleophile nonbonding electron are not present.
