Life cycle of the silkworm and production of silk cloth

The provided process illustrates the life cycle of the


silkworm and its cocoon undergoes a new cycle again.
Obviously, it can be seen that silkworm experiences four stages
before becoming a mature moth while its own cocoon goes
thread through five stages before becoming a beautiful silk
cloth.
The life cycle commences with beneficial animal’s eggs
suffering from 10-day time out of its environment then
developing into silkworm larva. This new animal mainly eats
mulberry leaf to grow and after 4-6 weeks it has important role.
At the third stage , advanced larva reproduces silk thread which
is used for clothes. About next 3-8 days larva confirm into
cocoon. End of this cycle a moth escapes this cocoon and
begins a new life cycle.
At the second process of silk cloth, the escaped cocoon is
carefully selected by human and produced by boiling water.
The next stage, the threads are unwound transferring from 300
to 900 meter fiber. Single threads are twisted, dyed, weaved
and dyed again to finish this process.
