    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    Silk textiles are mainly produced in China and India. China continues to lead the world in silk production, followed by its next-door neighbor, India. China and India are the two leading silk producers today. The Silk industry actually began between 5,000 and 3,000 BC in China. It reached India around 140 AD. The Silk Road also facilitated the smuggling of silkworm eggs into the Mediterranean and from there into the rest of Europe.
