Correct Answer - B
Metamerism is possible to eithers, thioethers, secondary amines, ketones and thioethers secondary amines, ketones and esters the metamers belong to the same family but differ in the nature of alkyl groups. e.g.,
`underset("Diethyl thioether")(C_(2)H_(5)-S-C_(2)H_(5))` and `underset("Methyl propyl thioether")(CH_(3)-SCH_(2))`
