Answer:

A female moth lays 300-500 tiny eggs and after around 10 days, the larvae (silkworms) hatch.

- The silkworms feed solely on large amounts of leaves from the mulberry tree for around 30-40 days.

- The silkworms shed their skin up to four times, or molt, as they continue to eat and grow.

- After their final molt, the silkworm builds a cocoon around itself. The cocoon is a protective casing spun from silk.

- Inside the cocoon, the silkworm changes into a pupa, the stage between larvae and adult moths.

- After around two weeks, the pupa emerges from the cocoon as an adult moth.

- The adult moth looks for a mate so that the female can lay more eggs and begin the cycle again.

- The thread from a mulberry cocoon when unwound can be 900 metres long

Answer:

Generally, we use maps as a reference to show political boundaries, landforms, water bodies, and the positions of cities. Maps also help us to know the routes of an area, landmarks, location (latitudes and longitudes) of a building or things, etc.
