Fruit fly. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a fruit fly (Drosophila busckii). Its two compound eyes (red) are seen on either side of the head. Between the eyes are the antennae,which consist of small fleshy pads with bristle-like extensions called aristas. Fruit flies are widely used in genetic experiments,particularly in mutation experiments,because they reproduce rapidly and their genetic systems are well understood.
