When you take a strip of paper, put two half twists in it, and glue the ends together and then cut it lengthwise along the center core line, it results in two interlocked loops.What you get is two interlocked loops when you cut it lengthwise along the center core line. This occurs because the paper strip has been twisted twice. The twist that was made in the paper strip produces two loops that are intertwined after it is cut down the center line.Paper is quite a flexible substance. When it's twisted, it retains its new shape. Because of this, when you twist a strip of paper, it retains its new form. When the strip is bent and connected to form a loop, the twisted part becomes embedded in the paper's core. This produces two loops that are interconnected. When the loop is sliced down the middle, the two loops remain interconnected since the twists in the strip have become embedded in the core.
