Solution

The correct option is A Barks and leaves of trees
  • In prehistoric times, man did not wear clothes.
  • Later, he began using the barks and leaves of trees as clothes.
  • After that, he began to hunt and realised that he can use the skins of the animals he had killed.
  • Later, when he learnt to make yarn from materials like cotton and wool, he began to make cloth from these materials and use these in a variety of ways.
