Question

_________is the twisting together of strands of fibers.

• A. Combing
• B. Spinning
• C. Weaving
• D. Knitting

Hint:

Spinning = Twisting fibers into yarn; Weaving/Knitting = Making fabric from yarn.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Spinning is the process in which fibers are twisted together to form yarn or thread. It converts loose fibers (like cotton, wool, or synthetic fibers) into a continuous strand that can be woven or knitted into fabric.
The main objectives of spinning include:

Strengthening the fiber by twisting
Making the fiber suitable for further processing like weaving or knitting

Explanation of Other Options:

(A) Combing: Aligns fibers and removes short fibers and impurities.
(C) Weaving: Interlacing two sets of yarn to form fabric.
(D) Knitting: Forming fabric by interlooping yarns.
Thus, Spinning is the correct process for twisting fibers into yarn.
