Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cellulose is the most abundant organic molecule in nature. It is a polysaccharide assembled from glucose monomer units, and it (together with other materials such as hemicellulose and lignin) is the main constituent of plant cell walls.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cellulose components in many plants are mostly placed in the leaves and stalks. In this regard, a number of plant fibers including ramie, hemp, jute and cotton seed hairs are composed of 60% to over 90% cellulose which can be applied for textile fiber.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cotton fibres represent the purest natural form of cellulose, containing more than 90% of this polysaccharide.
