(b)
Interpretation:
The reasons for the particular name of the site has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Polymers: Monomers combine together to form polymers. Monomers are the repeating units of small molecules which link together to form polymers and the process is called as polymerization. Polymers are macromolecules which are formed a by number of repeating units called monomers.
