Answer 2

A. O-O-O-O O O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O

is the correct answer

• There are four basic polymer structures which are shown in the figure below. In practice, some polymers might contain a mixture of the various basic structures. The four basic polymer structures are linear, branched, crosslinked, and networked.
• If a chemist is synthesizing a polymer utilizing two distinct starting monomers there are several possible structures, as shown in the figure below. The four basic structures are random, alternating, block, and graft.
• If the two monomers are randomly ordered then the copolymer is, not surprisingly, referred to as a random copolymer. In an alternating copolymer, each monomer is alternated with the other to form an ABABABA… pattern.
• In block copolymers, more complex repeating structures are possible, for example AAABBBAAABBBAAA… Graft copolymers are created by attaching chains of the second type of monomer on the backbone chain of a first monomer type.

The figure of the structure is shown below:
