Caterpillars and silkworms are eating machines. Once hatched, they will eat and eat until it becomes time to spin their cocoons or pupate to reach the final stage and emerge as an adult. In commercial silk production, once the silkworm is cocooned, it is dropped into boiling water to kill it. The cocoon is then unravelled to produce a silk thread Several threads are combined to produce the silk yarn strong enough to produce a fabric.

Why do you think that the silkworm's size increases rapidly?

The rapid size increase of silkworms is primarily due to their unique biological processes and nutritional intake. As larvae, silkworms consume large quantities of mulberry leaves, providing them with the necessary energy and nutrients for growth. Their growth is further accelerated by a high metabolic rate, which allows for quick conversion of food into body mass. Additionally, they undergo a series of molts, shedding their exoskeleton to accommodate their increasing size.
