Solution
The correct option is B Ginning Cotton is obtained from cotton balls. These balls burst and open on maturing after which white strands of cotton fibre are visible. The process of separation of cotton fibres from seeds is known as ginning.
Spinning is the twisting together of strands of fibres to form yarn.
Weaving is the production of fabric by interlacing two sets of yarns so that they cross each other at right angles.
