Is velvet natural or synthetic?

Velvet is a woven fabric where the softness comes from weaving cut threads evenly throughout the fabric. If you magnify it, it winds up looking a bit like shag carpeting. The original velvet fabrics were made for nobility from very soft materials like Cashmere wool. Silk is also used to make very expensive types of velvet since the fibers are so soft but also tough. You can get velvet made from these kind of exotic natural materials, but most natural-fiber velvet is now made with cotton. Velvet can also be made from synthetic fibers, but may not be quite as soft as that made from natural fibers.

Are red velvet ants wasps or ants?

They are a type of wingless wasp. The females are wingless anyway. They are in the family Mutillidae, in case you want to look them up. But common names are misleading and often nonsensical. A lot of the questions posted about "red velvet ants" seem to be dealing with real ants, so-called "velvety ants" and that is another matter. But real velvet ants are wasps other than ants (which actually are wasps of sorts as well, but never ind that for now).
