Question

Which of the following is the process of ginning?
a.) The process of turning cotton mass in yarn
b.) The process of combining two sets of yarn
c.) The process of removing cotton seeds from bolls
d.) The process of making yarn from fibre

Answer 1

Hint: Fibres are a thread-like structure. Fibres can be synthetic or man-made. They are generally prepared from raw material petroleum known as petrochemicals.

Complete Solution :
Generally, all the fabrics are obtained from fibers while we obtain the fibers from man-made sources. They consist of a small polymeric chain which is made from many repeating units. These repeating units are known as monomers.
- Usually we pick the cotton with our hands. The fibers of cotton get separated by combing. This process of combing of cotton is known as ginning of cotton.
So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Additional information-There are many different advantages of synthetic clothes, they are very durable as compared to the natural fibre’s clothes. They do not wrinkle easily. They are elastic and they can be easily stretched. But there are several disadvantages also. They catch fire easily, they do not absorb water easily which make it difficult to clean.

Note: From the above discussion we can say that we should not wear synthetic clothes while bursting crackers because the synthetic clothes can easily catch fire. They melt and stick to the body of the person wearing it. It is difficult for the synthetic fibres to take up colour like the natural fibres.
