Fibers:
Fibers are raw materials for synthesizing different clothes.
The fibers of clothing are longer than they are wide.
Fibers can be categorized into natural and man-made based on their source.
Fibers are the monomer of a manufactured rope or cloth.
Natural fibers Artificial fibers
They come from natural sources. These fibers are man-made and manufactured synthetically.
They have natural color. They have synthetic colors.
They do not require the process of spinning to be synthesized. These require spinnerets for the spinning process and production of filament.
These fibers can have dust inside them. Artificial fibers (unnatural) are devoid of dust and contamination.
As they are natural, they are less durable. Artificial fibers are durable and long-lasting.
The teacher has asked about the types of fibers and to differentiate them.
