CATDOLL : CATDOLL: There are several steps in silkworm breeding to make silk.

1. What were the steps for silk reeling used by the ancients?

First, boil the cocoons with water for a while. When the cocoons become soft, put the cocoons in hot water to find the silk ends, which will make it easier to roll them on chopsticks. Because the pupa inside has not come out yet, the cocoons are still intact. Then take a bowl, pull out the outer layer of silk from the cocoons, remove the silkworm shell inside, and soak the pulled cocoons in boiling water for about one minute. Be careful to press the cocoons to the bottom of the water, and don't let the cocoons float on the water. After a while, the water will turn yellow. At this time, you can take out the cocoons and put them in your hands. Gently pull one end of the cocoon with your hand, and you can pull out a thread and roll it on the chopsticks, eventually revealing the end of the silk, and finally all the silk is slowly rolled on the chopsticks.

Be careful not to use too much force during the drawing process, otherwise the thread will break.

2. What are the steps for ancient people to raise silkworms and produce silk?

First, process the cocoons. When the silkworms stop eating mulberry leaves, they will spin silk and make cocoons. The cocoons made at this time are our raw materials. We need to gently tear off some of the rocks on the cocoons with our hands. This can avoid interference from the chaos in the prenatal check-up.

Second, prepare boiling water. After boiling the water, throw all the cocoons into the boiling water. This process will scald the silkworm pupae inside to death. At the same time, it is also beneficial for our silk reeling work.

The third step is to take a small broom and stir the pot vigorously in a certain direction. The more you move your feet, the greater the chance that the silk threads in the cocoon will separate. When your feet are frozen to a certain degree, you will find that the head of a silk thread slowly falls out. This is the beginning of our most important silk reeling.

Fourth, we will wind the end of the silk thread we have found on the winding board. Then we can wind the silk thread. When we are looking for the thread, we must move lightly. Otherwise, if the force is too strong, the silk thread will be broken.

Fifth, we can directly use the drawn silk thread to weave silk. Generally speaking, the silk thread on a silk cocoon is very long, about 900 to 1500 meters long.

3. What steps did the ancients go through to raise silkworms and produce silk?

The ancients had to go through 11 steps to raise silkworms and produce silk: 1. Boil a large iron pot filled with water and put the silk cocoons into the boiling water first.

2. Then use a large mesh spoon or other tools to continuously stir the cocoons in the hot water until the cocoons become softer and softer as the water rolls.

3. When the water in the pot turns yellow (silkworm pupa soup), you can scoop it out and place it in a clean basin of hot water nearby.

4. Soak the cocoons in a clean basin of hot water for a few minutes. Make sure to press the cocoons to the bottom of the water and do not let them float on the surface.

5. Use chopsticks to stir the water vigorously in one direction, so that you can entangle the silk ends scattered in the water, and pull them upwards to pull out the silk.

6. Do not use too much force during the spinning process, otherwise the thread will be broken.

7. Hang a handful of silk heads on the gatherer.

8. The gathered silk ends are wound onto the spindle next to it.

9. Another worker used a large hand-cranked spinning wheel to drive the spindle to wind all the silk threads together.

10. The thick silk thread pulled from the spindle is still relatively messy and needs to be wound again with a small spinning wheel.

11. Carefully wind the cocoon onto the small spindle and the work of spinning silk is completed.

6. The whole process of silkworm spinning?

The silk-spinning process, also known as the cocoon-making process, is usually woven from silk secreted by silk glands.

Cocooning can be divided into four stages:

1. The mature silkworms first spin out silk, which is attached to the cocooning device, and then spin silk to connect the surrounding cocooning branches to form a cocooning support, that is, a cocooning net. The cocooning net does not have a cocoon shape, but is just some soft and messy cocoon silk layers to serve as a cocooning support.

2. After the silkworms have made a cocoon net, they continue to spin out messy silk circles to thicken the inner layer of the cocoon net, and then spin silk in an S-shaped manner, and the outline of the cocoon begins to appear, which is called the cocoon coat. The silk fibers of the cocoon coat are thin and brittle, arranged very irregularly, and contain a lot of sericin.

3. After the cocoon is formed, the cocoon cavity gradually becomes smaller, and the front and back ends of the silkworm body bend toward the back to form a "C" shape. The silkworm continues to spit out cocoon silk, and the silk-spinning method changes from S shape to ∞ shape, which starts the process of cocooning.

4. When the silkworm's body is greatly reduced due to spinning a large amount of silk, the swinging speed of the head and thorax slows down and there is no definite rhythm. The silk spinning begins to appear messy, forming a loose and soft cocoon silk layer, which is called pupa lining.

7. How do silkworms produce silk?

In the four development stages of silkworms from fertilized eggs to adults, only the larvae eat mulberry leaves. The mulberry leaves eaten by silkworms are digested and absorbed by the silkworm's digestive system. Part of them become the constituent substances of the silkworm's tissue cells and provide energy for life activities; the other part is converted into various amino acids and transported to the silk glands by the blood.

The silk gland is a gland that specializes in synthesizing silk. It is composed of more than 900 glandular cells. The liquid silk protein processed and secreted by the glandular cells is pulled by the silk-spinning tube under the mouthparts of the silkworm to spit out a long liquid filament, which condenses into solid silk when it encounters air. Generally speaking, after 2 to 3 days of "working" all night long, a mature silkworm larva can use fine silk to form an elliptical cocoon cavity until it becomes a cocoon.
