Solution

The correct option is A Woolen clothes trap and use the body's own heat to keep us warm.
In winter or in cold places, we wear woolen clothes because they trap the bodies heat to keep us warm. On the other hand, thick and dark-coloured clothing is good in winter as it absorbs the sun's rays to keeps us warm.
