1. Also called: first cousin, cousin-german or full cousin the child of one's aunt or uncle. 2. a relative who has descended from one of one's common ancestors. A person's second cousin is the child of one of his parents' first cousins. A person's third cousin is the child of one of his parents' second cousins. A first cousin once removed (or loosely second cousin) is the child of one's first cousin.
As a functional group, benzene and substituted benzenes are called arenes. Nomenclature: Functional group suffix = -benzene (review) Functional group prefix = phenyl-Substituted benzenes are usually named as such.The relative positions can be denoted as 1,2- = ortho-, 1,3- = meta-and 1,4- = para-substitution.When polysubstituted, the numbers alone are used, e.g. 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene.omenclature: Functional group suffix = -benzene (review) Functional group prefix = phenyl-Substituted benzenes are usually named as such.

Today we'll begin by looking at the structural characteristics of alkenes, the products of elimination reactions. Then we'll return to the topic of elimination reactions and examine their reaction mechanisms in more detail. The functional group of an alkene is the carbon-carbon double bond.
