A. What color do you want your insects to be?

B. How would you describe the process of artificial selection?

C. How will mutations be useful in achieving your goal color?

D. What strategy will you use to produce insects of your desired color?

E. Explain: One of the tallest dog breeds is the Great Dane, which stands over a meter tall. One of the shortest is the Pomeranian, which stands about 20 centimeters tall. Based on what you have learned about artificial selection, how were these two breeds developed?

    Well, in terms of the science of artificial selection, mutations will be useful in achieving your goal as a genetic mutation that happens often in insects, particularly fruit flies, is a change of color. A strategy that could be used would be a Punnet square to simulate the possible crosses between the insects and which is most likely to bring out the recessive gene (the desired color). Finally, the breeding of dogs can be explained by humans breeding tall dogs with other tall dogs to ensure that the outcome would most likely be another recessive gene (tallness) and a similar set of events would explain the Pomeranian (short dogs being breed with other short dogs)
