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

                         This week in science we observed our habitat and Fruit Flies. While observing our habitats, we looked for different changes, any dead organisms, or any new organisms. In my spider habitat, I discovered a few Fruit Flies on the tank. Afterward, we looked at tubes of Fruit Flies in its four different stages. We wrote down how the Egg, Larva, Pupa, and Adult all looked with descriptions. We took down notes and read a passage based on the Fruit Fly.
                          While observing the Fruit Fly, I learned that while it's in the Larva stage, it is still able to move around and looks somewhat transparent. Also, that when metamorphosis is over, the Adult comes out by forcing its way through the anterior end. The way I learned to tell the difference between a male and female Fruit Fly is by at the bottom of their bodies. With the male, the bottom tip is more fat, round, and darker. And with the female it's lighter, smaller, and a bit pointer.
