Solution

Rayon and acetate belong to a group of man-made fibres known as regenerated fibres. The rayon is obtained from a natural source, wood pulp, yet it is a man-made fibre.

Reason: The rayon and acetate, two of the first man-made fibres ever to be produced, are made of the same cellulose polymers that make up cotton, hemp, flax, and the structural fibres of wood.
