The statement which is true about the cotton gin is option B.  It helped to remove seeds from plant fibers.

A cotton gin is a machine that quickly and easily separates cotton fibers from their seeds, enabling a greater productivity as compare to manual cotton separation. Then, the fibers are processed into various cotton goods, for instance linens, while any undamaged cotton is utilized for textiles like clothing. The separated seeds can be used either to grow more cotton or for the production of cottonseed oil.
