Answer- Hairs trap a lot of air. Air is a poor conductor of heat, so it does not allow the body heat to escape and keep the body warm.
 
(v) How is silk moth reared?
Answer- Eggs of silk moth are stored carefully on strips of cloth or paper and sold to silkworm farmers. The farmers keep eggs under hygienic conditions, under suitable temperature and humidity. The eggs are warmed to a suitable temperature for the larvae to hatch from eggs when mulberry trees bear a fresh crop. The worms are kept in bamboo trays along with mulberry leaves. By eating leaves larvae change into caterpillar, then caterpillar into cocoons. The farmers get silk fibres from cocoon.
 
Question 7- Long Answer Type Questions.
 
(i) Write all the steps in processing silk from cocoons.
Answer-

(ii) Draw a well labeled diagram and explain the life cycle of silk moth.
Answer- (1) The female silk moth lay eggs on the leaves of mulberry trees.
(2) The eggs hatch larvae in two weeks to form worm like structures which are called caterpillars or silkworms. They eat leaves and grows to become pupa.
(3) To protect itself pupa secretes fibre made of protein and rotates its mouth in the shape of 8. Hence a cocoon made of silk fibre is constructed around the moth.
