The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster was found to be very suitable for experimental verification of chromosomal theory of inheritance by Morgan and his colleagues because
It reproduces parthenogenetically
a single mating produces two young files
smaller female is easily recognisable from larger male
smaller female is easily recognisable from larger male
D.
smaller female is easily recognisable from larger male
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster was found to be very suitable for experimental verification of chromosomal theory of inheritance by Morgan and his colleagues because
* It completes its life cycle in a very short period (ie, about two weeks).
* a single mating produces many offsprings.
* larger female is easily recognisable from the smaller male.
