No, fruit flies do not die immediately after laying eggs. Female fruit flies can lay hundreds of eggs during their lifetime, and after laying, they continue to live for several days to weeks, depending on environmental conditions. Their lifespan can be influenced by factors such as temperature, food availability, and overall health.

Why do flies have maggots when they die?

Flies lay their eggs in decaying organic matter, such as a dead animal, where they quickly hatch into larvae known as maggots. When a fly dies, the eggs it may have laid on its body are able to hatch and develop into maggots due to the warm, moist conditions present.

No. When an animal dies, flies are attracted to the body, lay eggs that hatch into larvae, and those larvae pupate into flies - just like caterpillars into butterflies, really, just instead of a butterfly laying her eggs on a plant, flies lay theirs on dead flesh.


Why fruit flies used an experiment and net humans?

I am assuming you mean 'Why are fruit flys used in experiments and not humans?' in which case the answer is there are so many fruit flies and they are not really neccicary to us humans.

When humans die where do the worms that eat them come from?

What eats human corpses are not worms, but maggots. Maggots are the offspring of flies. Dead things tend to attract flies (the stench of rotting flesh may be disgusting to us, but lovely to flies), and those flies come and eat the flesh as well as lay eggs on the decaying body. Once the eggs hatch, you get maggots, which also consume the flesh/bodily fluids of the body.
