उत्तर
Reeling of silk is the process of taking silk threads from cocoon.
Explanation:
The process of unwinding the silk filaments from the cocoon and combining them together to make a thread of raw silk is called reeling. For commercial purposes, 3-10 fine filaments are reeled together at a time to produce desired diameters of raw silk or reeled silk. The final viable length of reeled filament is 300-600 m.
