Post # 9 - This week in science (fruit flies part 2)

This week in science  got our spiders and we did the chart with the flies where if there were three flies in a container how many would there be in three weeks?. we got flies on our container and solved  the hypothesis. we drew our answer on a big piece of loose leaf and listed facts of how the answer is what it is.  We did everything in in groups and we picked two males and one female and put them in a vial and observed them.

This week in science I learned that one fruit flie  has 20 babies a day and after about day 16 those babies begin to hatch and make more babies. I also learned as the babies hatch the number of adults will increses by 20. Also I learned the different results you get depending on the number of males and females in the container. I also learned that from far away its hard to tell if a fruit flie is a guy or girl because you can't really see their brissle
