#hope it helps u

Explanation:

  • Drosophila melanogaster, known colloquially as the fruit fly, remains one of the most commonly used model organisms for biomedical science. ... These tools allow researchers to maintain complex stocks with multiple mutations on single chromosomes over generations, an advance that made flies the premier genetic system [4]
  • 75 per cent of the genes that cause disease in humans are also found in the fruit fly. Drosophila have a short, simple reproduction cycle. ... Fruit fly are small (3 mm long) but not so small that they can't be seen without a microscope. This allows scientists to keep millions of them in the laboratory at a time
