(A) Functional group isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different functional groups.
$I, II, III, IV$ are alcohols (functional group $-OH$).
$V, VI, VII$ are ethers (functional group $-O-$).
Any pair consisting of one alcohol and one ether will be functional group isomers (e.g.,$I$ and $V$).
$V, VI, VII$ are ethers and exhibit metamery due to different alkyl groups attached to the oxygen atom.
