Answer: A
At the alpha carbon of alanine the priorities are NHX2 (N) first, then COOH (C attached to O,O,O) over CHX3 (C attached to H,H,H), and H last. Viewed with H away from the viewer, NHX2→COOH→CHX3 runs anticlockwise in the drawing, so the configuration is (S). This is L-alanine, the natural enantiomer.
