Explanation:

  • The two types of wool fibres present in animals are wool and silk.
  • Silk is manufactured from the cocoons of silkworms whereas wool is manufactured from the fur of furry animals like goats. ... The key difference between silk and wool is wools ability to retain warmth. Although fabrics made from both silk and wool are able to retain warmth, wool is a better insulator of heat than silk.
