Answer 1

Explanation:

Sericin is a protein created by Bombyx mori (silkworms) in the production of silk. ... The fibroin is held together by sericin, a soluble gum secreted by the worm, which hardens as soon as it is exposed to air. The result is the raw silk fibre, called as the bave. The caterpillar spins a cocoon encasing itself completely.
