Answer 1

Answer:

Wool is used to make warm clothes.​

Explanation:

• Wool is a form of textile fiber that can be derived from sheep and other animals, including goats for cashmere and mohair, muskoxen for qiviut, bison for garments made of hide and fur, rabbits for angora, and camelids for other kinds of wool.
• Wool is primarily composed of protein with a trace amount of lipids. It differs significantly chemically from cotton, which is primarily made of cellulose, in this aspect.
• Wool has been used for carpets, upholstery, horse rugs, saddle cloths, and insulation. Wool felt is used to cover piano hammers and to quiet stereo speakers and heavy machines. Ancient Greeks employed felt to line their helmets, while Roman legions wore wool felt breastplates.
• Cloth diapers have historically been made from wool as well as cotton.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is Wool. Wool is a type of fibre that is used to make warm clothes.

Explanation:

It is a textile fibre, obtained from sheep and some other animals. This natural fibre is highly organised. The steps involved in wool production are shearing, scouring, sorting and grading, carding, making yarn, and washing and finishing. Wood fibres are obtained from sheep, goats (including cashmere goat), yak, alpaca, angora rabbit, and even camels.

Properties and quality of wool fibre are -

1. Absorption of moisture - The moisture is absorbed, and heat is generated to keep the garment stays warm without feeling wet.
2. Resistance to fire - It does not burn easily. It will smolder instead when subjected to flames.  
3. Resistance to dirt - It has an outer layer of scale that reduces the ability of dirt and dust.
4. Durability - It is a hard fibre that retains its appearance for a long time.
5. Insulating nature - Tiny gaps in the fibre fill with bubbles of air and make wool a perfect insulator.
6. Repel nature - This fibre repels liquid.
