b. Silk should not be exposed to direct sunlight for long time.
c. Storage boxes can be lined with newspaper.
d. Safety pins, buckles etc. should be removed from clothes before storing.
e. Rayon should be de-starched before storing.

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Explanation:

Answer 2

The reasons are:

1) Cottons are good absorbers of moisture,so a little amount of dampness can make cotton wet and soggy which is not preferable for our usage.

2) Long exposure to the sunlight can make silk fibres brittle and faded.

3) To prevent external damages.

4) Safety pins are made out of iron and if the iron metal is kept with clothes for a long time,there are chances of arrival of rust stains on the clothes.

5) For a longer usability of the rayon fibre.
