The diagram reveals the life cycle of silkworm before became the moth. The silkworm has the four phases and need for minimal 57 days before became the moth. The larva phase is the longest process in the life cycle of silkworm.
First phase, the silkworm will produce eggs on leaf and leave its eggs. Those eggs will be adhered on the leaf for ten days before the second phase. Next, in the second phase, eggs transform to be silkworm larva. Larva consume mulberry leaf and also live there. That phase the longest process require time for minimal 4 weeks and maximal 6 weeks.
After that process, larva enter the next phase. Larva will construct silk thread wrapped up themselves. Constructing of silk thread occur during 3-8 days. While the procedure is finish, larva move into the cocoon stage. In the fourth stage, larva hibernate for 16 days. Having completed it, the cocoon will be opened smoothly, and the moth out of the cocoon.
