The purpose of the study was to observe the role of diet during stress response at cellular and metabolic levels in fruit flies. Before the

stimulus that helps it search for the food (Stocker et al. 2007). There are flies such as dragon‚ house flies and various other flies in diptera order. Flies are attracted to sugar and seem to have certain neurons that activate upon encountering the sugary content. The compounds contained sugars‚ salts‚ bitter food‚ and certain other Molecules are detected by gustatory neurons‚ which are widely distributed in the body of the fly (Stocker et al. 2007 ). Neurons that influence feeding behavior are present

occurred during the experiment was that some flies became stuck in the food source and died. The main cause of this was the fact that the fly vials were stood up (vertically) before the flies had fully recovered from the anaesthetic. This could be overcome in future experiments by ensuring that the vials are kept horizontal until all of the flies fully recover from the anaesthetic. One possible error that may have occurred was that some of the adult flies may have accidentally been left in the vials

FRUIT FLY PURPOSE: The purpose of this lab is to determine what genetics are dominant and which one is recession in the fruit fly and to see what genetics are past down from generation to generation. INTERODUCTUON: Mendel’s pea did and experiment that was demonstrates genetic inheritance. When his experiment he found out that genes are past down from generation to generation. Mendel is known more for his experiment on fruit flies and not on

After the chi-squared values were found in each week (table 1)‚ in the third generation where the chi-squared was found to be 0.32 which most likely fall between the two values of 0.148 and 0.455. These two values correspond to a probability values of 0.70 and 0.50‚ and these two values lay to the left of the p- value of 0.05‚ which means the null hypothesis presented

Block 1 January 24‚ 2011 Introduction & Background Fruit flies have made a huge contribution towards knowledge about genetics‚ but for most people‚ they are just annoying insects that are attracted to their fruit. Their scientific name is Drosophila melanogaster‚ and to scientists‚ they have been a key to understand many principles of heredity including sex linked inheritance‚ epistasis‚ multiple alleles‚ and gene mapping. Fruit flies were the first organisms to be used for genetic analysis

research is using this information to reduce the amount of anoxia related stress humans with pulmonary diseases experience. Methods Each condition was tested with a separate single group of D. melanogaster (cold bath - 8 flies and warm bath – 11 flies)‚ and all of the flies used were approximately 1-9 day old males. Each group of D. melanogaster was held in a container that provided adequate nutrients prior to the experiment‚ and then transferred to a drowning container that held no nutrients.

Fruit Fly Lab Alycia Fletcher Biology IB HL March 25th 2010 Fruit Fly Lab Introduction Genes can either be sex-linked or autosomal. If a gene appears mostly in one sex chances are the gene is sex-linked and if it appears frequently in both sexes it is most likely autosomal. Using Drosophila melanogaster‚ also known as the fruit fly‚ we will determine whether the gene is sex-linked or autosomal. Drosophila melanogasters have a relatively short life span and are an excellent organism
