One is solid, one is liquid.

A polymer is just a large molecule (macromolecule) made up of a chain of repeating structural units (monomers), and a liquid one would just be a liquid polymer. Any major differences would depend entirely on the specific polymer.

The main difference between alkyd resins and alkyd polymers is the chain length. Most of the time Polymer is large and resins are small. However this is not always the case sometimes it can be a little as the color difference.

A polymer can be made of one single monomer unit, for example, ethylene to polyethylene. Whereas a copolymer can have two monomers that grow into one polymer with a different arrangement. for example, ethylene and butylene grow into poly(ethylene-co-butylene )

There is no difference between polymer and co-polymer. In fact, co-polymer is a type of polymer.

What is the difference between supernatant and filtrate?

supernatant - liquid above and solid in the bottom, the supernatant is the liquid above that is going to be poured off (to separate the solid and the liquid) filtrate - it is also the liquid part but the solid and liquid is separated differently, for example coffee the filter paper holds on to residue (solid) and the liquid part (filtrate) passes I think that is the difference.
