Solution

The correct option is D Both A and B

A and B differ in configuration at C-2 hence they are epimers, also they are non mirror images as C-3, C-4, C-5 have same configurations, hence, they are diastereomers.
A and B both are optically active.
Anomers are cyclic monosaccharides or glycosides that are openers differing from each in the configuration of C-1, If they are aldoses or in the configuration at C-2, they are ketones. A and B are not aldoses or ketoses
