Solution

The correct option is D
Silk

Fibres we obtain from nature (plants and animals) are called as natural fibres. Wool is obtained from hair of animals like sheep, goat, yak, etc; silk from cocoon of silkworm and cotton from fruits of cotton plant. Hence, wool, cotton and silk are natural fibres. Nylon is prepared from chemicals and hence is a man-made fibre.
