Answer:
The secretions are made up of Protein.
Explanation:
- Caterpillars excrete a fiber that, when exposed to air, hardens and becomes silk fiber. Caterpillar fiber secrets are formed of proteins.
- Eggs are laid by the silk moth female. The egg hatches into the larva, often known as a caterpillar or a silkworm, which then develops in size.
- When the caterpillar is getting ready to become a pupa, it first spins a net to secure itself and swings its head in a figure-eight motion (8).
- The caterpillar secretes a fiber consisting of a protein during these motions; this fiber hardens when exposed to air and produces silk fiber.
- The caterpillar quickly wraps a cocoon of silk fibers around itself to completely encase it.
