Silkworms are the larvae of any number of species of moths, collectively called Silk Moths. The species used for nearly all commercial silk is Bombyx mori. and they are highly "host specific" meaning the organism (the symbiont) depends upon one particular species of plants, animal, or insect for its host, and they will only eat Mullberry leaves.

Silk worms generally prefer to feed on the leaves of mulberry trees, specifically the white mulberry tree. These trees provide the necessary nutrients for the silk worms to grow and produce silk.
Colonists were to use a portion of their land to grow mulberry trees so that silkworms would eat the leaves and make cocoons for the production of silk.
Yes, trees with yellow leaves can still photosynthesize and produce energy. While they may not be as efficient as trees with green leaves due to reduced chlorophyll levels, they can still convert sunlight into energy by using other pigments such as carotenoids.
Yes.
