In the above reaction,the electrophile is substituted at the meta position only,due to:
$I$. Electron density is more at ortho $\&$ para positions
$II$. Electron density is relatively less at ortho $\&$ para positions
$III$. Electron density is less at meta position
$IV$. Electron density is relatively more at meta position
The correct answer is:

  • A
    $I, III$ only
  • B
    $II, IV$ only
  • C
    $I$ only
  • D
    $III$ only
