Solution

The correct option is A Nylon
Nylon fibre has properties like high strength, elasticity and lightweightedness. We use many products made from nylon. For example, socks, ropes, tents, tooth brushes, car seat belts, sleeping bags, curtains, etc. Nylon is so strong that it is also used for making parachutes and ropes for rock climbing. A nylon thread is actually stronger than a steel wire.
