Question:
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 should buy shirts made from cotton. This is because cotton is a good absorber of water. It can soak the sweat coming
out of our body and expose it to the environment. Thus, it helps in evaporating the liquid (sweat), thereby cooling our body.
