The figure, in words

All four options are line structures of ring compounds (no stem figure).
  1. (1)[structure: a five-membered ring drawn with HN at the upper left and N at the bottom, with a two-carbon chain ending in NH2\mathrm{NH_2} attached to the ring]Official answer
  2. (2)[structure: a benzene ring with a two-bond chain, ending in a label with H printed above NNH2\mathrm{NNH_2}]
  3. (3)[structure: HO on a benzene ring that is fused to a five-membered ring containing N with H printed below it; a two-carbon chain ending in NH2\mathrm{NH_2} is attached to the five-membered ring]
  4. (4)[structure: a benzene ring fused to a ring containing CO, NH and SO2\mathrm{SO_2} (CO and SO2\mathrm{SO_2} on adjacent benzene carbons, joined through NH)]
