Biology Observation by Molly He (Partner: Diana Xu)

In this lab, we first learned about how to tell the difference between male and female flies. We also learned about the circadian rhythm.

This is the type of fly that is with the gene of Parkinson’s disease. There is a control group that is healthy.

 

This is when the flies are immobilized by CO2. This is also a board that emits CO2 to keep the flies asleep.

The left is the male, right female fly.

 

We are accounting for Monitor1, line 17-32. The red dotted ones are disease group.

 

We can see that there are some flies killed by us by accident that have all zero showings. For others, I lack the ability to use the computer tool to analyze the data. I could tell by naked eyes that most flies followed the circadian rhythm.
