Abstract The basic principle of Mendelian inheritance was studied using the fruit fly‚ Drosophila Melanogaster. A Cinnabar Brown female was crossed with Wild Type male. The flies were mated in a jar containing a nutrient medium and then placed in an incubator. The experiment was conducted over a period of 5 weeks.
