Rana wants to buy shirts for summer. Should he buy cotton shirts or shirts made from synthetic material? Advise Rana, giving your reason.                                 

Answer:

Rana must buy shirts made of cotton and not one made from synthetic fibres. This is because synthetic fibres absorb less water as compared to natural fibres. Thus, in summers, wearing shirts made from synthetic materials may cause discomfort as they would not absorb sweat and stick to the body, however cotton shirts absorb sweat and dry up faster, thus, making the person feel less hot.
