Question

A population of fruit flies on an island lay their eggs in some rotting fruit. Some of the fruit is blown into the ocean by a storm and washes up on another island. The islands are too far apart for the flies to fly from one island to the other. What will most likely happen to these fruit flies after many generations?.

Answer 1

Fruit flies are observing logistic growth. Resources were initially limitless, and population growth was exponential. But when supplies ran out, the population grew close to its carrying limits.

What is the fruit fly's adaptation?

In response to illnesses, the immunity of fruit flies changes in bacterial as well as genetic ways. A common parasite that makes its host infertile can affect fruit flies. Fruit flies with the parasite are prevented from losing their capacity to reproduce by the bacterium Spiroplasma.

Even though these unwanted visitors adore eating fruit and other sweet foods, the scent of decaying fruit is what draws them in the most. The flies have specific receptors on their olfactory neurons that allow them to detect acetic acid, a fruit fermentation.
