Answer:

hope it helps

Explanation:

The life cycle of silk moth starts when a female silk moth lays eggs. The caterpillar or larvae are hatched from the eggs of the silk moth. The silkworms feed on mulberry leaves and give rise to pupa. In pupa stage, a weave is netted around by the silkworm to hold itself. After that it swings its head, spinning a fiber made of a protein and becomes a silk fiber. Several caterpillars form a protective layer around pupa and this covering is known as the cocoon. The silk thread (yarn) is obtained from the silk moth’s cocoon.
