Best answer

Correct option(c) Polystyrene

Chain-growth polymers involve a series of reactions each of which consumes a reactive particle and produces another similar one. The reactive particles may be free radicals or ions (cation or anion) to which monomers get added by a chain reaction. It is an important reaction of alkenes and conjugated dienes or indeed of all kinds of compounds that contain C-C double bonds.
