    “Creativity is the brain's invisible muscle -- that when used and exercised routinely -- becomes better and stronger” (Ormon, 2016).

    intersexual and intrasexual selection, we failed to account for some of the other factors associated with the selection of a mate. As discovered in previous research on T. molitor, the use of sex pheromones appears to play a significant role in their mating process (Karlson and Luscher, 1959). By releasing and detecting chemical or hormonal signals, species are able to communicate in ways that are unseen to the naked eye. While it may appear as though two individuals want nothing to do with one…

    (Franklin, 2014). The reason why our experiment is focused on the wings of these flies is because Drosophila melanogaster males perform mating dances that involve them extending their wings and vibrating rapidly. Presumably, the successfulness a male has in mating will be in large contributed to the types of wing a fruit fly has and its ability to perform an attractive mating dance. While examining the overall change in evolution, it is necessary to…

    the social structure theory to base their experiment on. “The social structure theory states that most of the sex differences in mating preferences occur because most societies direct men into more advantaged social and economic positions compared to women” (Kennair& Norideide& Stronen,2011).
