Yes, silkworm (silk+worm) is a compound word.
Silkworm is a premature moth.
Silk is the material produced by the silk worm to make its cocoon. The silkworm that makes the best quantity of silk is the mulberry silkworm. Shortly before the silkworm is going to eat its way through the silk of the cocoon, the worm is killed by humans so the cocoon can be unraveled into a single thread.
It comes out as a adult silkworm if it is lucky or,it will eventually die.This depends.
silkworm larvae spin the silk yarn around its body. The saliva from its mouth come out and in the air it became the beautiful luster silver yarn harder than steel of its denier
A silkworm comes out of the silk cocoon as a moth, if its life is allowed to complete a full cycle.
Natural. It is the fiber made by the silkworm to surround the cocoon of the silk worm larva.
A silkworm is the larva of the silk moth, Bombyx mori. It is a domesticated insect known for its ability to produce silk.
Silk fabric is woven from stands of silk secreted by the silkworm.
Linen is made from the fibres of the flax plant. Wool is from the fleece of an animal such as the sheep or alpaca. Silk is a thread unwound from a cocoon of a silkworm. Cotton is a thread made from the cotton plant.
A silk worm produces silk, which is made up of proteins and amino acids that form polymers when they are joined together.
The silkworm makes a coccoon. When the worm does this, you drop the coccoon into warm water and let it soak. After a while, the "glue" that the silkworm uses to make the cocoon dissolves and the fibres come apart in the water. Carefully find the end of the cocoon and start to unravel it. It should come apart easily and the silk will dry to a usable product.
