QUÉ SIGNIFICA SILK EN INGLÉS

Seda

Silk

La seda es una fibra natural de la proteína, algunas formas de las cuales se pueden tejer en los textiles. La fibra proteica de seda está compuesta principalmente de fibroína y producida por ciertas larvas de insectos para formar capullos. El tipo más conocido de seda se obtiene de los capullos de las larvas del gusano de seda Bombyx mori criado en cautiverio. La apariencia brillante de la seda se debe a la estructura triangular de la fibra de seda, que permite que el tejido de seda refracte la luz entrante en diferentes ángulos, produciendo así diferentes colores. Las sedas son producidas por varios otros insectos, pero generalmente sólo la seda de las orugas de polilla se ha utilizado para la fabricación de textiles. Ha habido algunas investigaciones sobre otras sedas, que difieren a nivel molecular. Muchas sedas son producidas principalmente por las larvas de los insectos que experimentan la metamorfosis completa, pero algunos insectos adultos tales como webspinners producen la seda, y algunos insectos tales como grillos raspy producen la seda a través de sus vidas. La producción de seda también ocurre en Hymenoptera, silverfish, mayflies, thrips, leafhoppers, escarabajos, lacewings, pulgas, moscas y mosquitos.

Silk is a natural protein fibre, some forms of which can be woven into textiles. The protein fibre of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and produced by certain insect larvae to form cocoons. The best-known type of silk is obtained from the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in captivity. The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the triangular prism-like structure of the silk fibre, which allows silk cloth to refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colors. Silks are produced by several other insects, but generally only the silk of moth caterpillars has been used for textile manufacturing. There has been some research into other silks, which differ at the molecular level. Many silks are mainly produced by the larvae of insects undergoing complete metamorphosis, but some adult insects such as webspinners produce silk, and some insects such as raspy crickets produce silk throughout their lives. Silk production also occurs in Hymenoptera, silverfish, mayflies, thrips, leafhoppers, beetles, lacewings, fleas, flies and midges.

definición de silk en el diccionario inglés

La primera definición de seda en el diccionario es la muy fina fibra lustrosa suave producida por un gusano de seda para hacer su capullo. Otra definición de seda es hilo o tela hecha de esta fibra. La seda también es una prenda hecha de esto.

Colorful garments - ball gowns, kimonos, evening pajamas - made from yards upon yards of iridescent silk or velvet. I own an unjustifiable number of such outfits and jump at the chance to wear them.
