Solution

Dear student

ketone and aldehyde are functional isomers: CH₃-CH₂-CHO and CH₃-CO-CH₃.
Alcohol and ether are functional isomers: CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-OH and CH₃-CH₂-O-CH₃
Caboxylic acid and esters are functional isomers: CH₃-CH₂-COOH and CH₃-COO-CH₃.

so your answer is only aldehyde and ketone are functional isomers, alcohol is not.
