Solution

The correct option is A Stem
Jute is natural fibre that is obtained from jute plants. It requires high temperatures and humid climate to grow. It grows best in sandy loams and clay loams. Alluvial or loamy soil are best for jute cultivation. It is obtained from the stem. The stems of jute plants are soaked in water till they rotten. Fibres are obtained from this. It is then followed by yarning and spinning. It is used as stuffing in life jackets and pillows.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Stem.'
