An aldotetrose is an aldose containing four carbon atoms.
Your question is not specific enough - what do you mean by isomer? If you mean stereoisomers (likely question with biomolecules) the two most common stereoisomers of glucose are L-glucose and D-glucose. There are 4 chiral carbons in glucose so there would be 42 or 16 possible stereoisomers. The other most important stereoisomers would be mannose and galactose.
provided it has a tetrahedral geometry
muscarine has three stereocenters (aka chirality centers) therefore: 2^3=8 in conclusion, muscarine can have 8 stereoisomers.

There are 5 chirality centers, so there are 5^2 (=25) stereoisomers.

there are 128 stereoisomers of cholesteol . from the formula 2^n where n is the total number of chiral centers. As for cholesterol, there are 8 stereocenters therefore 2^8= 128
No it is not. There are no stereoisomers
The Thalidomide tragedy was caused in part by a lack of knowledge of stereochemistry. One of the stereoisomers was toxic the other was not.

Stereoisomers are isomeric molecules that have the exact same molecular formula, but a different three dimensional position. A conformer is a set of stereoisomers.
Since each menthol isomer has 3 stereocenters, menthol has a total of 8 stereoisomers.
