Wool: no specific monomer, it is a heteropolymer of 16-18 different amino acids, depending on species and diet of the sheep There is often a lot of cysteine.
Cotton: β(1→4) glucopyranosyl fragment.
Extra information:-
Silk: gly-ser-gly-ala fragment (idealized of course, but at least 75% of any silk is glycine, serine, and alanine)
I hope you understand.
