Solution

The correct option is A 1 and 2
Metamerism :
Structural isomers in which there is a difference in the relative position of alkyl group around polyvalent atom/functional groups.
In options (1) and (2) the relative position of alkyl groups around the functional group can be different. So, they show metamerism. thus $Diethyl thioether (C_{2} H_{5} - S - C_{2} H_{5}) and Methyl propyl thioether (C H_{3} - S - C_{3} H_{7})$ are metamers.
