Solution

Rearing of Silkworm: In the beginning, the female silk moth lays hundreds of eggs. These eggs are stored over a clean paper or piece of cloth. These eggs are then sold to the silkworm farmers. The farmers then keep the eggs under the accurate temperature and humidity in a clean place.
Reeling is the process of unwinding the thread of silk from the cocoon.
