Jute is the outer covering of coconut.
A . True
B . False
Answer-
Jute is obtained from plants called Corchorus Olitorius (dark jute or tossa) and Corchorus Capsularis (white jute) and are composed of cellulose and lignin. Jute fibre has very unique physical properties like bulkiness, sound insulation, heat insulation property, low thermal insulation properties, tenacity (customary measure of strength of a fibre) and antistatic property etc. Jute fibres are suitable in many industries due to these properties. Coir is also a natural fibre which is extracted from the outer covering (husk) of coconut. There are two types of coir that are red coir and brown coir. When coir is immature they are pale but with the time a layer of lignin is deposited on their wall and they become hardened and yellowed. Coir is used in floor mats, floor tiles, mattresses and upholstery padding for the automobile industry.
