Solution

Many natural fibres like cotton and jute are available but we still depend on artificial fibres like nylon because :

  1. Natural fibres are very costly as compared to artificial fibres, therefore people are more focused on artificial fibres.
  2. Artificial fibres are available in different colours, which attracts the attention of customers.
  3. Manufacturing of silk which is a natural fibre involves the death of silkworms, that's why we are switching to artificial fibre that is exactly the same as silk.
  4. Natural fibre requires more effort and a complex extraction process as compared to artificial fibre.
