Silk is not a fossil fuel product.
Explanation:
- Silkworms are caterpillars of (usually) the Bombyx mori moth.
- Throughout its 3 to 8 day pupating period, the silkworm secretes fibroin, a gummy liquid protein, from its two sericteries (special salivary glands).
- Strapped over a spinneret (opening on the mouth), the twin pair of continuous filaments stabilize when they come into connection with the air.
- Next, the silkworm secretes sericin, a connection agent, from two additional glands to hold the two filaments composed.
- While constructing its cocoon, the silkworm will twist in a figure-8 motion about 300,000 times and produce around 1 kilometer of filament.
