Flies

Oh, dude, not even close! Fruit flies and humans are like distant cousins twice removed when it comes to wheat. Fruit flies are more like that annoying neighbor you wave to but don't really want to hang out with, while humans are like the cool kids at the party that wheat wants to chill with. So yeah, they're pretty far apart on the evolutionary tree.

This is the exact question that I have in my Apologia : Exploring Creation with Biology (Second Edition) And the answer is no. The Orgnism can either be divided into right and left sides that are mirror images or cannot be divided into two equal halves.

A house fly is faster than a human in terms of relative speed. House flies are capable of flying at speeds of up to 5 miles per hour, while humans typically walk at an average speed of around 3-4 miles per hour. However, in terms of absolute speed (not relative to body size), humans can travel much faster than house flies using vehicles or other means of transportation.

Storks have a hard time getting into the air due to their large size. Once they get into the air, they find warm columns of air called thermals. They use these to help them glide over long distances, reducing the amount they need to flap.

Chicks, referring to baby birds, are typically not able to fly immediately after hatching. They need time to develop their flight feathers, wing muscles, and coordination before they can fly. Once they reach a certain stage of development, they will begin to practice flying, starting with short distances and gradually increasing their abilities.

Oh, dude, the scorpion fly is classified under the order Mecoptera. It's like they're part of this cool insect club with long beaks and weird tail things that make them look like tiny scorpions. So, yeah, they're basically the insect version of a mixed breed dog - a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and a whole lot of confusing people.

Yes they can. Bugs don't drown the same way we do. It doesn't get in their longues, their bodies absorb the water. When you pour salt on the bug it extracts the water that was absorbed and it comes back to life. It will only work if the bug drowned recently though. It can't be a bug that drowned a week or so ago.

The "affect" probably sought is the nature of the chemistry of the fruit (its juice) and the ability to tap that chemical energy to drive electric current in a circuit. There is a little basket full of examples of the ideas inquired about here. Use the link to see one such example. It's an easy article to read, and illuminates the topic nicely.

Maggots in sugar can occur due to the presence of fly eggs laid on the sugar by flies seeking a suitable environment for their larvae to develop. Flies are attracted to sugary substances, and if the sugar is not stored properly in a sealed container, flies can access it and lay eggs. The eggs hatch into maggots, which can then be seen in the sugar. Proper storage of sugar in airtight containers and maintaining good hygiene practices can help prevent this issue.

Shortly after the mating season, most insects lay their eggs.

If an orange isn't ripe, is it called a green?

Flies get their name from their ability to fly, which distinguishes them from other insects that may not have the same flying ability. The term "fly" comes from the Old English word "fleóge," which means "flying insect."

There are over 900 species of sand flies worldwide, with the most common genera being Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia. These flies are known for transmitting diseases such as leishmaniasis, a parasitic infection.

The fruit flies in space died due to lack of gravity acting as a cue for proper navigation, leading to disorientation and inability to find food or mating partners. Additionally, the stress of the space environment and inability to adapt physiologically may have also contributed to their death.

Houseflies can carry and transmit disease-causing pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can make humans sick. They pick up these pathogens from garbage, sewage, and decaying organic matter and then transfer them to human food and surfaces, increasing the risk of infections and illnesses.

Fireflies produce light through a process called bioluminescence, where a chemical reaction in their bodies creates light without generating heat. This allows them to produce natural light which appears as a twinkling glow. This adaptation aids in their communication, mating rituals, and defense mechanisms in their environment.

Flies are attracted to feces because it contains nutrients that they need to survive and reproduce. The high protein content in feces provides flies with essential amino acids that help them thrive. Additionally, flies have a highly developed sense of smell that allows them to detect the odors emitted from feces from a distance.

A fly is called a house fly because it is a common species of fly that is often found in and around human habitations such as houses. They are attracted to human food and waste, which is why they are commonly found in indoor spaces.

It means he took off fast (just like a horsefly running away from a fly swatter).

Flies have compound eyes, which are made up of thousands of individual lenses called ommatidia. This allows them to see in multiple directions at once, giving them a wide field of vision. However, their vision is not very sharp and they are sensitive to movement, which helps them navigate and spot potential threats.

The offspring will have red eyes because the mother is homozygous dominant for red eye color. White eye color is a recessive trait and can only be expressed when both parents pass on the white allele. Since the father has white eyes, the male offspring will inherit the white eye color.

A common housefly has compound eyes that allow it to see in multiple directions simultaneously, giving it a wide field of vision. However, their visual acuity is limited, and they can only see in a somewhat fuzzy and pixelated manner up to a few meters away.

The fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) was first sent to space in 1947 aboard a U.S. V-2 rocket launched from White Sands, New Mexico. This experiment was part of research on the effects of radiation exposure in space.

House flies can be beneficial by breaking down organic matter and aiding in nutrient cycling. They can also serve as a food source for some animals like birds. However, they can also transmit diseases and be a nuisance to humans if they infest living spaces.
