it is a molecule* that can be joined with other molecules that are identical to form a polymer*

key words :

a molecule:

a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.

a polymer:

a substance that has a molecular structure consisting chiefly or entirely of a large number of similar units bonded together

hope this helped, good luck in future studies !
