(c) Nylon<\/u> thread was developed simultaneously in New York and London.<\/p>

(d) Rayon is also known as synthetic silk<\/u> .<\/p>

Q.2. Answer the following questions.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

(a) Why did the need for man-made materials arise?
Ans:<\/strong> The need for man-made materials arose :<\/p>
