Yandel Pena · Answer 1

Polymers are made up of made of repeating subunits.

Polymers are defined to be substances built from similar units bonded together.

Polymers can be synthetic or natural.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A basic unit of a polymer is called a monomer. And when number of monomer units combine together then it results in the formation of a polymer.

As poly means "many" and mer means "units". So when many units combine together then they form a polymer. These units are repetitive in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that it can be known about all four polymers, despite their differences that they are made of repeating sub-units.
