Question

You study how blowflies aid in animal decomposition in forest ecosystems. when would be the best time for you to do your research?

Answer 1

The answer is; in the summer

Insects such as blowflies increase their population in the summers when the temperatures are warm. One reason is that most insects are ectotherms hence their body temperatures are dependent on ambient environmental temperatures. In addition, the maggot stage of the blowfly pupates mostly in warm and dry conditions hence increasing winged flies populations in the summer.
