Complete step by step solution:
Yarns are continuous long chains of interlock fibres. They are suitable for producing textile, embroidery, weaving and knitting.

Hence, the given statement is true and the correct option is A.

Additional notes: Thread is one of the types of yarn that is specifically used for sewing either by hand or by a machine. Nowadays threads made from yarn are coated with wax or some other lubricant so as to increase its tensile strength. Embroidery yarns are specifically used to do the needle work mostly in the single colours. There are varieties of colours that are available for yarns. They may be used uncoloured or maybe colour using natural dyes or synthetic dyes
Yarns can either be made using natural fibres or synthetic fibres. There are only two types of yarn, spun yarn and filament yarn. Yarns are made from fibres. Most common natural fibres for making yarn is cotton. They are obtained from animals as well for example Kashmiri and silk yarn. Some rare yarn can also be spun from camels, York, Yak, cat, dog and rabbit furs.

Note:
Yarn quantities are generally measured as sold by weight in grams. The general sizes are 25
grams, 50 grams and 100 grams. Textile measurements are taken at standard conditions of temperature and humidity because fibres also absorb humidity and moisture and hence the weight may change, so standard conditions are taken for the measurements. Another measurement of yarn is wraps per inch. Yarn is wrapped around a ruler and the number of wraps that fit in an inch are counted.
