Explanation:

In textile production, after gathering and cleaning fibers, the next logical step is to spin the fibers into thread. Spinning is a fundamental process in preparing fibers for further textile - related operations like weaving.

• Option a (weaving) comes after spinning (as you need thread to weave).
• Option b (combing and sorting) is usually done before or during the cleaning process.
• Option c (dyeing) is often a later step, after the fibers are spun into thread or even after weaving.

Answer:

D. spin the fibers into thread.
