MCQ
What are polymers?
  • A
    Macromolecules composed of many repeated sub units.
  • B
    Monomers bonded together in a long chain.
  • ✓
    Both $A$ and $B.$
  • D
    None of the above.
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both $A$ and $B.$
A polymer is a substance or material consisting of very large molecules, or macromolecules, composed of many repeating subunits.
The word polymer comes from the Greek words for “many parts.” Each of those parts is scientists call a monomer $($which in Greek means “one part”$).$ Think of a polymer as a chain, with each of its links a monomer.
Due to their broad spectrum of properties, both synthetic and natural polymers play essential and ubiquitous roles in everyday life.
