Answer:

Wool is an animal fibre that can be used to make textiles.

Explanation:

  • Wool is a form of textile fibre that can be derived from sheep and other animals, including goats for cashmere and mohair, muskoxen for qiviut, bison for garments made of hide and fur, rabbits for angora, and camelids for other kinds of wool.
  • Wool is primarily composed of protein with a trace amount of lipids. Sheep are the main source of wool, and Merino sheep are the source of Merino wool.
  • The same protein that makes up human hair, keratin, makes up wool.
  • Merino wool, on the other hand, is far finer than human hair, making it ideal for opulent next-to-skin clothing.
  • Extremely Breathable
  • Clothes made of wool are naturally permeable right down to the fibre level.

Wool fibres inherently allow air to flow, unlike synthetic fibres, which can only breathe through pores between the strands in the garment.
