Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Natural fibres are those that come from plants, animals, or minerals. Fibres derived from plants are referred to as plant fibres. For example, flax, cotton, jute, etc. The natural fibres that may be obtained from animals are called animal fibres. These fibres are often composed of many protein types. The two most well-known types of animal fibres are silk and wool. Consequently, silk is an animal fibre made by the silkworm.
The correct statement is that silk is an animal fibre.
