Answer 2

Answer:

pupa

Explanation:

When the caterpillar or larva of an insect such as silk moth is fully grown, it stops feeding and makes thin silk thread. With the help of silk threads larva fixes its body to a leaf or a twig. The larva then wraps its body by making more and more silk threads. This is called the cocoon. A cocoon is a casing spun of silk. Within cocoon larva is transformed into a pupa, the cocoon is a protective covering for the pupa.
