Propene can undergo addition polymerisation because it consist of a susceptible double bond which can open up and react with other propene molecules to produce a long continuous macromolecule called polypropene.
A monomer with a carbon-carbon double bond (alkene) is most likely to form an addition polymer. The double bond can be broken to allow the monomers to add together without the formation of any byproducts.
Propene is obtained from crude oil through a process called steam cracking, where long-chain hydrocarbons in crude oil are broken down into smaller molecules such as propene. This process involves heating the crude oil to high temperatures in the presence of steam, which causes the hydrocarbons to undergo thermal decomposition and form propene along with other byproducts.
Glycosidic Bond. For example, in a disaccharide, two monosaccharides form a glycosidic bond with the loss of water.
It is NOT a polymer, just carbon in solid form.
That would be a monomer.

a polymer
There are no synonyms for a monomer, it can combine with other molecules to form a polymer, but even polymer is not synonymous...
These are polymers, which are made by linking monomers together through chemical bonds. This joining process is called polymerization, and it can result in a wide variety of complex and diverse molecules with unique properties and functions.

Molecules consisting of chains of repeating units are called polymers. Polymers are made up of smaller molecules that join to form these larger molecules. Examples of polymers include starch and nylon.
Monomers can be defined as relatively small and simple molecules that bond together (during a polymerization reaction) to form a macromolecule called a polymer. Thus we can say that monomers are the units responsible for the formation of a polymer. A monomer is a molecule that can be bonded to other molecules to form polymers
is a molecule that may bind chemically to other molecules to form a polymer
That would be a monomer.
