D. 40 - 50 microns

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The diameter of wool fibre of marine wool ranges between 40 - 50 microns.
A micron is the measurement of the diameter of a wool fibre. A lower micron number means a finer fibre.
Merino wool is the finest and usually measures anything from 40 to 50 microns but can still be finer. Other wool varies in micron and this depends on the breed of the sheep, the health and age of the sheep.
