The document discusses different natural and synthetic fibers used in textiles including cotton, silk, wool, jute, nylon, and flax. Cotton comes from cotton plants and has a soft, fluffy staple fiber. Silk is produced by silkworms to form cocoons and is valuable for fine fabrics. Wool comes from sheep and has crimped fibers that are elastic and grow in staples. Jute is a soft, shiny vegetable fiber produced from plants. Nylon is a synthetic polyamide fiber. Flax is extracted from the flax plant, an annual plant growing up to 1.2 meters tall.
