Drosophila melanogaster an excellent model for studying fundamentals of development because many of the genes involved in the development of the fruit fly are also found in humans and  the precise formation of each of their 959 body cells has been mapped.

Its many of the genes involved in the development of the fruit fly are also found in humans. Drosophila melanogasteris which is also called Fruit fly is small in size and minimal requirements, many fly's can be raised and tested within a small laboratory which does not have access time, space or funding.

Genetic factors also make this fly an ideal model organism. Drosophila melanogasteris only has four pairs of chromosomes compared to 23 pairs in humans.

How do seismic waves help scientists understand Earth's layers? Select the two correct answers. (1 point)
qaws [65]

Seismic waves help scientists understand Earth's layers by:

  • Scientists can observe how seismic waves change speeds when passing through different layers.
  • Scientists can observe which seismic waves cannot pass through certain layers.

<h3>What are Seismic waves?</h3>

These are waves which are generated as a result of the movement of

materials in the earth. They change speed as a result of the collision with

materials in the earth and know the types of material present as a result of

some types not being able to pass through certain medium.
