Characteristics of Linen. Linen is a type of fabric made with flax fibers. Flax fibers are more rigid than cottons or silks, endowing linen fabric with a lack of elasticity and its propensity to wrinkle. Linen can be made using a multitude of weaves, which will determine the texture and weight of the fabric.
Seagulls live near the sea because their main food is fish. When bird evolution exploded after the dinosaurs had died out, they quickly (in geological terms) adapted to fill all the ecological niches made available by the previous extinction event and one of those was the sea.
Seals and sea lions live most of their l â¦ ives in the water but come out on land to bask in the sun. They come up during the breeding season. They like deep salt water because it provides plenty of fish to keep them alive and healthy. Seals live in places where disturbance is minimal. They like islands and rocky shores where they can bask in the sun and be close to their source of food. Also, they like sandbars, where they can also bask in the sun.
