Cotton comes from a plant, not an animal. we get wool from sheep though, which at first glance might look like cotton.

Cotton, They're soft than wool (i guess) but i choose cotton

Cotton itself is not a stretchy fiber. Woven fabric is typically not stretchy. So no, I would not expect a cotton gauze to be stretchy unless it was a cotton blend.

It comes from the way in which cotton is spun and then woven.

Cotton wool is raw cotton with major impurities removed, usually used for surgical dressings, tampons and so forth -- highly absorbent cotton.

The term is most common in UK: highly absorbent cotton is more commonly used in USA.

In common terminology cambric fabric is made up of approximately. equal no. of warp and weft threads irrespective of yarn variety and poplin has almost double the no. of warp threads than the weft threads.

The Confederate government was opposed to placing any embargoes of the export of cotton. This was in conflict with those states and individuals who believed that an embargo would help the South gain foreign recognition. Various states and governors such as Georgia's Joseph E. Brown supported the idea of a cotton embargo. Jefferson Davis was not in favor of any sort of embargo, cotton or other products and he prevented the Confederate Congress from passing any embargo laws.

Although cotton wool is found in first aid kits please do not use it on open wounds because cotton fibres could adhere to the injury and if in surgery they are not removed they will cause septicemia. Cotton wool may be used for splint padding and for eye makeup removal only!

Yes it is, as I tested this by using cotton to insulate drink cans which had boiling water in them. I recorded the temperatures every 2 minutes (I also tested denim and polyster. I used an uninsulated can as a control) I graphed the results on a graph and found it was a good insulator when it was both wet and dry. I tested it with denim and paper towels and cottonballs were the better insulator.

They can be made into strong sturdy clothing. Other items are strong as they are made from cotton.

Cotton is a natural fiber, which means it is easier on the environment, and interacts better with people. It is also a renewable resource.

More slaves were needed to PICK the cotton in the fields because the cotton gin more quickly took the seeds out of the cotton. The planters (plantation owners who owned more than 20 slaves) wanted more profit, so they wanted to constantly have the cotton gin working. To have this happen, there would need to be A LOT more cotton.

By using numerous blades which look like thin circular saw blades. The blades grab some cotton fibers and pull them through thin slots which are too thin to allow the seeds to pass through. The cleaned cotton is then rubbed off the blades on the other side of the slots.
