You could cross breed them and depending on what their offspring is, you can determine what their genotype is.
it would be xyx
XR Xr

When Thomas Hunt Morgan mated fruit flies with specific genotypes, he observed deviations from the expected Mendelian ratios, indicating that certain traits were linked on the same chromosome. This led to the discovery of genetic linkage and the concept of gene mapping.
When Morgan mated fruit flies with the genotypes XrYr (homozygous for recessive traits on X and Y chromosomes) and XrY (heterozygous for the X chromosome), he observed a 1:1 ratio of offspring. The offspring would consist of XrYr and XrY genotypes, leading to a mix of phenotypes that correspond to the traits associated with those alleles. This experiment helped elucidate the principles of sex-linked inheritance in fruit flies.
Because of the smell.
F R W stands for the allele combinations of dark-banded (F), ruby-eyed (R), and white-eyed (W) in fruit flies. These genotypes are used to study genetic traits and inheritance patterns in Drosophjson Melanogaster.
Assuming that we are talking about fruit flies, then you should be able to determine this. Gray bodied flies would be the dominant and ebony bodied flies would be recessive. So, the results can only be a homozygous dominant fly (GG) or heterozygous fly (Gg). If you cross that fly with a ebony bodied fly (gg) and there is a result of some ebony bodied flies, then you know the original fly was heterozygous. If you result in all gray flies, then it was dominant.Source(s):Biology 101
Flies eat anything organic - live and dead flesh, animal waste, anything they can gain sustenance from.
flies are important for devouring the rotting bodies of animals that would otherwise pile up.
Flies are more muscular on the inside but can't push it out to the outside of their bodies and love to eat you rotten pancakes.
Yes, flies have blood, but it is not always visible when they are killed due to their small size and the way their bodies are structured.
