This Week In Science (Fruit Flies Part 2) Post #9

   This week in science we tested the fruit fly problem to see if we had the right answers. After one day

there would be 40 eggs, on day 15 there would be 600 eggs, 3 adults 1M(male)/2F(female). At day 16 their 

would be 560 eggs because some eggs hatched leaving 43 adults. We charted our results.

   We learned the how to determine if a fruit fly is a male or a female. We also learned females have 20 

eggs each day. We learned the flies take two days to become mature adults. We learned the fruit flies have 

a life cycle of a total of 16 days and can live up to eight  weeks as adults.
