Check this out : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group.  If you're still confused or unsure come back and ask more specific questions.

Looks good so far.  Look for functional groups including oxygen and carbon.  You're missing 3 I believe.

Note that the functional groups you labeled as 'ethers' are adjacent to carbonyl groups.  You're missing one more - it's in the dead center!  ;)

Dear derek0o0;

Exactly!, - You have not named, or not correctly (they aren’t Ethers!), the three substituent’s of the benzene ring.

Merry Christmas
Good Luck!

Dear derek0o0;

It’s of the same kind/nature as the methyl (CH3-)  of Toluene.

Good Luck!

Dear derek0o0;

No, it’s the first of the “Wiki table”, it’s call:  Alkyl (Prefix: alkyl-) substituent.
(Of course: You can also name it’s “full substituented” name  ;), if you really like.)

Good Luck!

I was referring to the benzene as an aryl group.
