Which term describes a part of a natural fiber line?

A Lacings
B Twines
C Lays
D Fibers
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Fibers. The term "fibers" refers to the individual strands or filaments that make up a natural fiber line, such as manila, nylon, or polyester. These fibers are the fundamental building blocks of the line and are twisted or braided together to create the desired strength and characteristics of the line. The other answer choices are not directly related to the components of a natural fiber line. Lacings and twines are types of cordage, but they do not describe the individual fibers that make up the line. Lays refer to the way the strands of a line are twisted together, but this is a separate characteristic from the fibers themselves.
