Solution

Leather and wool are obtained from animals, whereas jute and cotton are obtained from plants. Leather is made from the skin of animals, while wool is obtained from the hair or fleece of animals such as sheep. Jute is obtained from the stem of the jute plant, while cotton is obtained from the cotton plant.

Thus, leather and wool are animal products, whereas jute and cotton are plant products.
