The correct answer is: Nylon-2-nylon-6
\(\underset{\text{(Glycine)}}{\mathrm{nH}_2 \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{COOH}} + \underset{\text{(Amino caproic acid)}}{\mathrm{nH}_2 \mathrm{~N}-\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_5-\mathrm{COOH}} \rightarrow \underset{\text{(Nylon-2-nylon-6)}}{\left[-\mathrm{NH}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CO}-\mathrm{NH}-\left(\mathrm{CH}_{2}\right)_{5}-\mathrm{CO}-\right]}\)
