I am doing a lab write-up about our experiments on fruit flies. Why had the F1 generation and had them reproduce the F2 generation. With the F2 generation we looked at each fly and examined whether they were male or female, if they were wildtype, or if they had a mutation. And we had to know the different mutations. I have to answer the questions: Why fruit flies as a model?  What are mendels laws? and develop a null hypothesis on sorting independently.
