Original Abstract Submitted

A support according to an embodiment includes fibers. A first arithmetic mean roughness of the fibers observed from in-plane direction of the support is 7 [μm] or more and 40 [μm] or less. A first sampling length of the first arithmetic mean roughness is one fifth of an average diameter of the fibers observed from the in-plane direction of the support.
