Kayla Berezne Mrs. Cohen Honors Biology 24 March 2013 Genetic Predictions in the Fruit Fly The Drosophila melanogaster is a fruit fly with a very short life cycle. They can be winged or wingless‚ and have red eyes or white eyes. The different options are called alleles. Alleles are the variants of a specific gene‚ and one is received from each parent on each chromosome. (“What Are Dominant and Recessive?”).
