Post 8: This Week in Science (Fruit Flies Part 1)

    This week in science we identified the different stages in the life of Dorsophlia Melanogaster (Fruit Flies), we also identified the different sex's based on their physical appearance. We observed how each stage of the Fruit Fly development is different from the last.

   
     We learned that the life cycle of a Fruit Fly is a total of 16 days. We learned female Fruit Flies can house the males sperm for life reproducing whenever needed. We learned male fruit flies have a darker bottom while the females are lighter. We learned how the Fruit Flies mate and reproduce quickly.
