Solution

The correct options are
A Diastereomers
C Epimers
Diastereomers are stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another and are non-superimposable on one another. Stereoisomers with two or more stereocenters can be diastereomers.
So D - Glucose and D - mannose are diastereomers.
Also they are epimers.
