How are semi-synthetic polymers different from fully synthetic polymers?

Options

  1. ASemi-synthetic polymers are entirely man-made, while fully synthetic polymers are derived from natural sources
  2. BSemi-synthetic polymers are partially derived from natural sources and partially synthesized, while fully synt
  3. CSemi-synthetic polymers are less durable than fully synthetic polymers.
  4. DSemi-synthetic polymers have a lower molecular mass than fully synthetic polymers.

Correct answer

B. Semi-synthetic polymers are partially derived from natural sources and partially synthesized, while fully synt

Step-by-step solution

Semi-synthetic polymers are partially derived from natural sources and partially synthesized, whereas fully synthetic polymers are entirely man-made.
