Fruit flies are a powerful asset when studying inheritance because their chromosomes are visible with light microscopes, and they reproduce rather quickly! They can reproduce in a matter of a couple weeks, with around hundreds of offspring! Thus it is easier to see phenotypic patterns as well as genotypic inheritance in fruit flies.
Many species of fruit flies are able to lay up to 20 eggs at a time. This allows them to reproduce at such a quick rate.
They come from eggs that might be laid in rotten food substances. It takes 48 hours for them to turn into fruit flies, that is why it seams that they come from nowhere when all it is is that they reproduce really fast.

That depends on the species. For example, fruit flies reproduce in a much shorter time than it takes people and elephants.
Fruit flies are used in research (usually genetic and reproduction research) because they are genetically similar to humans reproduce rapidly. That is they make several generations quickly. So, if the research want to see what will happen several generations after they make an experimental change, they are likely to use fruit flies.
Maggots are the young of flies and will grow up to be adult flies and those flies can reproduce.
Everybody seen flies stuck together.

Flies start out as eggs, then become maggots. Then they pupate and become flies.

None. Flies do not reproduce asexually, so you need 2 flies per lay. Even with 2 flies it would depend on how good the male was in the sack and if the female smoked afterward.
Crane flies don't suck blood. Some of them don't even have a mouth, they live just long enough to reproduce. Their own blood is likely yellowish. ^^
No, flies are annoying, they are consider pests.

A housefly lays eggs on a dead animal, so the maggots can hatch out and begin eating the dead animal right away. The fly may also lay eggs on an open wound, or on the rear of sheep. Farmer's regularly inspect for maggots on their animals.
