Solution

The correct option is C Silk
Silk is an animal fibre obtained from the cocoon of silkworm. Cocoons are boiled to kill the larvae inside it to avoid the breakage of continuous silk thread. This process is called stifling.

Wool is obtained from the fleece of the sheep without killing it.

Cotton and jute are plant fibres obtained from cotton and jute plant.
