Answer:

The cocoon is the protective covering around the pupae or chrysalis of some insects - especially moths. The cocoon is usually made from silk secreted and woven by the caterpillar/larvae before it pupates inside. Silk is arguably the most well known product from insects.

Answer:

Explanation:

The caterpillar has a soft, worm-like body that is covered by an outer layer called the integument. As it grows, the caterpillar changes its integument through a process called molting. The integument is protected by hairs, which have sensory function and sometimes have stinging cells.
