Answer 1

The right solution to the given question is option C: Silk and Wool.

• The given examples are the fibers that are of natural origin from plants and animals.
• The plant-based fibers mentioned here are Jute and Cotton.
• These fibers have the main component which is a carbohydrate called cellulose.
• The other two fibers mentioned here are silk and wool which are obtained from animals.
• The silk fiber is obtained from silkworm that has long-change protein known as Fibroin and Sericin.
• Wool is obtained from sheep animals and is mainly composed of a chain of proteins called alpha keratin proteins.
• Hence, animal-based fiber silk and wool have a long chain of proteins in their composition.
