The process of removing seeds from cotton is called ginning.
A) True
B) False

Hint: You must know that ginning is considered as the bridge between cotton production and cotton textile manufacturing. The cotton seeds which are harvested by the farmers are needed to be cleaned and cotton fibres are needed to be removed from the seeds. So for this process, cotton gins (cotton machines) are used.

Complete step by step solution:
A cotton gin is a cotton machine which quickly and very easily separates the cotton fibres from their seeds. This process of separating the cotton from seeds is called ginning or we can also say like that the process of removing seeds from cotton is called ginning. The seeds of cotton usually arrived at the cotton gins in round bales or modules. The cotton gin separates the seeds and removes the trash like dirt, stems or leaves from the fibre. The ginned cotton fibre that is, the cotton fibre obtained after the ginning process is known as lint.

Since the process of removing seeds from cotton is called ginning, the correct answer is A.

Additional information: There are generally six stages in the processing of cotton and these are:
- Cultivating and harvesting
- Preparatory process
- Spinning
- Weaving or knitting
- Finishing
- Marketing
The cultivating and harvesting stage involves the ginning process.

Note: The harvested cotton is called cotton seed because the fibres are still attached to the seed. Clean cotton is obtained after the ginning process and clean cotton is very important because any trash attached to the yarn can cause the yarn to break. The principle function of a ginning process is to convert the farmers’ harvested cotton seeds into stable commodities i.e., fibre.
