The diagrams below show the life cycle of the silkworm and the stages in the production of silk cloth. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

There are two diagrams which illustrate the life cycle of the silkworm in four steps and

also

how a

silk

cloth is produced.

Overall

, the life cycle

diagram

, started with eggs, larvae, and

silk

thread until it changed to a moth. In the next

diagram

, the process of producing

silk

cloth begins with the selection part to boiling twisting and weaving putting it in a potting to be dyed. It can be seen that the first step in the life cycle

diagram

is eggs that must be passed 10 days to change into silkworm larvae. At

this

stage, the silkworms eat mulberry leaves to grow but it must take time between 4 to 6 weeks to be a

silk

thread.

Then

, about 3 to 8 days is taken to change into a cocoon. Eventually, after 16 days each cocoon is transformed into a moth. The production of the

silk

cloth

diagram

started from the selection part. In

this

part, they select suitable cocoons and put them into a big pot to be boiled in water. After that, they unwind it 300m to 900m thread twist it, and make a weave. In the

last

step, they put it into a pot to be dyed.
