Solution

The correct option is C usually diffuses into the interior of a fiber from a water solution.
A dye is a colored substance that has an affinity to the substrate to which it is being applied. The dye is generally applied in an aqueous solution and may require a mordant to improve the fastness of the dye on the fiber.
Hence option C is correct.
