As 'Wool' is obtained from sheep hair likewise Mohair is obtained from :

  • A.Camel hair
  • B.Vicuna hair
  • C.Angora goat hair
  • D.Asiatic goat hair

Answer: C

Mohair is obtained from Angora goat hair.

Mohair is the long, lustrous, silky fibre shorn from the Angora goat, which originated in the Ankara (Angora) region of Turkey. Under the microscope its scales are flat and barely visible, which helps distinguish it from wool.

Camel hair comes from the Bactrian camel, vicuna from the vicuna, a wild relative of the llama, and cashmere, not mohair, comes from the Asiatic (Kashmir) goat. Angora wool, confusingly, comes from the Angora rabbit, not the goat.
