Solution

The correct option is A glucose
Cellulose is a natural polymer present in the plant cell walls. They have glucose (C6H12O6) as its monomer, which forms the repeating unit. These repeating units joined together form the structure of cellulose.

However, amino acid and isoprene are monomers of the polymers- protein and natural rubber respectively.
