(NH-CHR-CO )n,
: A homopolymer is a polymer where every unit of the chain is the same. Examples: Polyvinylchloride
The polymer (-NH-CHR-CO-)nis a homopolymer because the homopolymers are made up of similar monomer unit here, this polymer is also made up of only the given-NH-CHR-CO- unit.In copolymer the polymer are made of different unit

It is a homopolymer (a polymer  which  is  formed  by  single monomeric   unit is called  a homo polymer .)because it contains single monomeric unit (NH-CHR-CO)n.
