Solution

The correct options are
B Neoprene
C PMMA
When a polymer is made by linking only one type of small molecule or monomer together, it is called a homopolymer, e.g. PMMA and Neoprene.

When two different types of monomers are joined in the same polymer chain, the polymer is called a co-polymer, e.g., Nylon - 6,6 and Bakelite.
