AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Jute Fibres**: Jute is a natural fiber that is primarily used for making burlap, hessian cloth, and various other products. It is known for its strength and durability. 2. **Identifying the Source of Jute Fibres**: Jute fibers are derived from the stem of the jute plant. The specific type of fibers that are commercially harvested are known as phloem fibers. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Sieve Fibres** - These are not the correct answer as they refer to a type of cell in the phloem that helps in the transport of nutrients, not the fibers used commercially. - **Option 2: Xylem Fibres** - These fibers are found in the xylem and are not the source of jute fibers. - **Option 3: Pollen Fibres** - Pollen fibers are not related to jute and do not provide the commercial fibers we are looking for. - **Option 4: Fibres of Mesocarp of Coconut** - While these fibers are useful, they are not the source of jute fibers. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is that commercial jute fibers are obtained from **phloem fibers** of the jute plant. **Final Answer**: The commercial jute fibres are obtained from phloem fibers. ---
