Solution

The correct option is C Nylon
Nylons are types of polyamides.

Even if you didn't know that, if you remember the monomers of nylon-6,6 which are hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid; and if you know about condensation polymerisation, you can figure out the structure of nylon-6,6

If you remember, an amide is $C O N H_{2}$ ... here we have $C O N H$ , this is the amide linkage.
