    Introduction A chromosome is a minuscule threadlike part of the nucleus and a structured DNA in the form of genes carrying hereditary information (Bridges‚ 1938). Endomitosis is the process of mitosis of chromosomes without undergoing nuclear or cellular division  to increase cell volume. This results in a single nucleus having many copies of a single chromosome (Painter & Reindorp‚ 1940). In this experiment‚ Drosophila melanogaster is reared in specific conditions and its salivary gland extracted
