Solution

The correct option is A

True


The skin of the sheep has two types of hairs that form its fleece:

  1. Beard hair
  2. Under-hair close to the skin

Under hair is the softest part of the sheep’s hair. Beard hair is coarser and rougher. Hence, under-hair is used to make the soft woollen fabric.
