• B. Cotton clothes absorb sweat from the body.
• C. Cotton exposes the sweat to atmosphere for evaporation
• D. Cotton is light in weight.

The correct option is A Cotton clothes attract cool air.

We wear cotton clothes during summer as cotton absorbs sweat from the body exposing it to the atmosphere for easy evaporation. As we tend to sweat more during summer, the cotton fabric absorbs sweat and helps the body to cool down.
