Answer:
A polymer is a general term for any molecule that is a long string of smaller repeating parts formed by carbon-carbon bonds. The bonds can form long straight chains known as linear polymers, or parts can branch off from the chain, forming branched polymers. The polymers can also be cross-linked.

The polymers in which smaller units are linked to each other in straight arrangement is called as Linear Polymer.
Explanation:
- Polymers are the macromolecule which are made of similar small subunits called monomers (base unit of polymer).
- They have larger molecular weight.
- Polymers can be Linear, Branched, and Cross-linked Polymers.
- Branched polymers are made of a primary polymer chain which acts as backbone and a secondary polymer that is linked with the primary backbone.
- Cross-linked polymers have network type of structure in which monomers are linked via covalent bond.
- In Linear polymer, the monomer units are joined together and placed in a straight line without any cross links.
