Both olefin and microfiber are synthetic fibers, though they are made from different processes. Olefin is made using ethylene or propylene. Microfiber is made by combining thin strands of polyester and nylon.

no, "Olefin is a manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is any long-chain synthetic polymer composed of ethylene Propylene or other olefin units". (Kaldolph, 2010)
Thermoplastic olefin is a plastic that helps absorb the energy from a crash or bump. And when you crash into something that is also made of thermoplastic olefin, it will bump back to you which will cause different forces. Like in Newtons first and third law of motion
Olefin fiber is a man-made fiber made from a polyolefin. Some of it's advantages include it's resistance to mildew, staining and fading in sunlight; it's strength; and it's comfort.
No, fibers are the raw material used to make yarn. Yarn is made by spinning fibers together to create a continuous strand that can be used in textiles.

When the yarn is made of cotton or wool, it is natural.
Sock yarn, as its name implies, is generally made from standard yarn. However, sock yarn can be made from virtually any form of fiber, such as wool or nylon.
Yarn is made of fibres twisted together. These fibres or filaments are made of sheeps wool. :)
Yarn is spun and then sold for craft use.
