The time when silkworms transform from larvae into adults is called the pupal stage or pupation. During this period, silkworms undergo significant changes within a protective cocoon, eventually emerging as adult moths. This transformation is a crucial part of their life cycle, marking the transition from larval to adult form.

Why are silkworms called silkworms?
Silkworms are called silkworms because they are the primary source of silk production. The term refers specifically to the larvae of the silk moth, Bombyx mori, which spin cocoons made of silk fibers during their pupal stage. This silk has been cultivated for thousands of years, leading to the association of the larvae with silk. The name reflects their role in the silk-making process.

What animal makes silk?
Silk is produced by silkworms, which are the larvae of silk moths. The silkworms spin silk to create cocoons in which they undergo metamorphosis into adult moths. The silk is harvested from these cocoons and woven into fabric.
What are larvae called?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think that larvae are called 'larvae'.
What are baby sea stars called?

Picture of wasp's life cycle look like?
wasps life cycle is that they start as anegg, then hatch and become larvae, the adults put the larvae in comb shaped cells, the adults then feed the larvae. once fed the larvae are enclosed within the cell, when they are done growing they eat there way out. the larvae are now nymphs. they will then become adults!
