Sketch the life cycle of Drosophila.  \n2. Define taxis and give examples of environmental factors that might trigger this behavior.  \n3. Outline the sensory pathway involved in Drosophila behavior.  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\nSlide 10 / 23  \nSafety  \nDo not add substances to the choice chamber unless your teacher has approved them.  \nIf the substance you add is flammable, such as ethanol, use caution and do not conduct your experiment near a heat source or flame.  \nMany of the substances used in this experiment are food items, but you should not consume any of them.  \nFruit flies are living organisms that should not be released to the environment. After all the investigation are complete, flies should be tapped into a \"morgue\"through a funn","cbCail8guNS5IIIa","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail8guNS5IIIa","pdf",524310,"English","# Investigation #12: Fruit Fly Behavior\n## Pacing/Teacher's Notes\n## Pre-Lab\n## Guided Investigation\n## Independent Inquiry","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of Investigation #12 on fruit fly behavior?\",\"answer\":\"To investigate how environmental factors affect Drosophila behavior and to identify patterns between conditions and organism responses through a controlled experiment.\"},{\"question\":\"What activities occur during the guided investigation?\",\"answer\":\"Students observe and sex fruit flies, transfer 10–20 living flies into a vial, monitor fly position after inverting, and use the observations to analyze responses.\"},{\"question\":\"What safety rules are emphasized before adding substances to the choice chamber?\",\"answer\":\"Students must only add substances approved by the teacher; if using flammable materials like ethanol, they must avoid heat sources or flames, and they must not consume any experimental substances.\"}]","Investigation #12 - Fruit Fly Behavior - Guided Investigation | PDF",1790051469]
