Tencel is a staple fibre. That is it is cut into staple lengths during production so that it can be processed into yarns and nonwoven fabrics on conventional textile processing machinery. The cut lengths are similar in length to cotton or to wool.
Continuous filament Tencel yarns are not produced but in theory could be. In a filament yarn all of the fibres in the yarn have the same length as the piece of yarn.

Does a lamp with a thick filament draw more current or less current than a lamp with a thin filament?
A lamp with a thick filament will draw more current. What restricts the current flow in the filament is the resistance of the filament which increases as the temperature of the filament increases. A thin filament requires less energy to get heated up that a thick one so less current to achieve threshold resistance. Also a thick filament provides a broader path for current so there is less resistance per increase in degree centigrade. For these two (closely related but distinct) reasons it will require more current for the filament to get heated up to threshold resistance.
What type of light build glows when a filament inside it gets hot?
Electric lamps having incandescent filaments.

What is staple in fiber?
staple is an element of fiber, pertaining to the length of an individual fibrous hair. Staple length is useful to handspinners to know how finely to spin their wool based on the breed. Staple can vary between breeds of wool or other fiber, e.g. Merino commonly has a staple of 2-4 inches, while others may have very long staple length. To see for yourself, hold a small piece of fiber or roving from either end and gently pull outwards, until the fiber pulls appart. Measure one of the pieces, and that is your approximate staple length.
