True or False: Mineral oils can be manufactured from cotton seed products.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only for low-grade products

  4. It requires special processing

The correct answer is: False

Mineral oils are typically derived from the refining of crude oil or petroleum products, not from plant materials. While cottonseed oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of cotton plants, it is a different category of oil and does not equate to mineral oil, which is defined as a petroleum product. Therefore, stating that mineral oils can be manufactured from cotton seed products is inaccurate. The correct understanding lies in recognizing that mineral oils and vegetable oils are distinct substances with different sources and characteristics. Consequently, the accurate response to the question is that it is false that mineral oils can be manufactured from cotton seed products.
