Silk moth undergoes metamorphosisconsists of four stages.

-It begins with the insect hatches from the egg into a soft worm-like larva.

The Larvae feed on mulberry leaves. They can eat several times their own body weight to store food.

-At the end of the larval stage, the insect makes a hard shell called cocoon, inside which it becomes a pupa. The pupa does not eat or move in this stage.

Silk is obtained from the cocoon.

-Inside the cocoon, the pupa changes into an adult silk moth. This adult silk moth can now live independently.
