The correct option is C Low density polythene
Low-density polythene is a branched-chain polymer made from the monomer ethylene.
Branched-chain polymer consisting of linear chains having some branches.

High density polythene and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are linear polymers.

Bakelite is a cross linked polymer. They are formed from
bi-functional and trifunctional monomers. They Contain strong covalent bonds between various linear chain

Hence, option C is correct.
