Answer:

• Threshed grains contain seed coverings or husks and small pieces of leaves and stalk.

• These impurities are collectively known as chaff.

• Even though the large stalks can be separated from the grains by threshing, the grains still have chaff.

• The husk is much lighter than the grain. So when the grains are gently dropped to the ground only the Grain is collected while the husk blows away.

• The method of separating chaff from the grains by blowing air is known as winnowing.

• This method is used to separate the chaff from the grains.
