Here is prostaglandin, a lipid molecule used by your body to help heal injury and illness. I have identified a definite chiral carbon (see the *). If prostaglandin has an absolute configuration of (R) at the indicated chiral carbon, which group should be the wedge and which group should be the dash? Note: there are four groups labeled with a-d. These are the groups that require prioritization around the chiral carbon. Your job is to figure out the priority of each group (1-4), and put your choice in the ssociated box below. Then, decide whether group c should be a wedge or a dash and if group d should be a wedge or a dash that the final configuration at that carbon is (R). C H riority of group a: b d OH OH HO prostaglandin ritization of the groups (enter the number of the group's priority: 1, 2, 3, or 4):
