Best answer
Correct option is (a) True

The best explanation: The given statement is true. If the same unbeaten pulp is beaten, then the resultant paper is much more dense, hard and strong. If taken to the extreme, beating produces very dense, translucent, glassine-type sheets. Thus, beating can be controlled to produce paper types as widely different as blotting and greaseproof paper.
