Solution

The correct option is B
Assertion : True

Reason : True

Nylon is a synthetic fibre while rayon is a semi-synthetic fibre (obtained from the chemical synthesis of cellulose).

Fibres of nylon are stronger than fibres of rayon. Moreover, nylon fibres have good elasticity and they do not wrinkle as compared to rayon fibres. Due to this nylon is much more used as compared to rayon.
