The naturally occurring polymer among the following is:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Proteins
NATURAL POLYMER - The polymers found in nature, i.e., from plants & animals are known as natural polymers.
RAYON - Rayon is classified as a semisynthetic polymer, as it is manufactured from naturally occurring polymers. It is purified from cellulose.
NYLON - 6 - Nylon - 6 is a synthetic polymer, obtained by heating caprolactum with water at a high temperature
DACRON - It is also a synthetic polymer. It is formed by the interaction of ethylene glycol & terephthalic acid.
PROTEINS - Proteins are large macromolecules, containing one or more chains of amino acids. They are held together by peptide bonds. Amino acids are found in living organisms. Hence, they are natural polymers.
