Explanation:

Natural fibres can be classified according to their origin. The vegetable, or cellulose-base, class includes such important fibres as cotton, flax, and jute. The animal, or protein-base, fibres include wool, mohair, and silk. An important fibre in the mineral class is asbestos.

Using this system, there are six basic types of natural fibers:

  • bast fibers such as jute, flax, hemp, ramie, and kenaf;

  • leaf fibers such as banana, sisal, agave, and pineapple;

  • seed fibers such as coir, cotton, and kapok;

  • core fibers such as kenaf, hemp, and jute;

  • grass and reed such as wheat, corn, and rice; and.
