Drosophila is a model animal that is often used in genetic research. Which of the following is the best method for distinguishing the sex of Drosophila?
- A The Y chromosome plays a pivotal role in determining the male sex. Drosophila with Y chromosome is male, the rest is female.
- B Sex combs are located only on the forelegs of male, but not female Drosophila.
- C Male Drosophila is brighter and larger than female.
- D Male Drosophila has red eyes, and female Drosophila has white eyes.
- E Male Drosophila has curled wings, and female Drosophila has flat wings.
思路引導 VIP
如果在顯微鏡下觀察兩隻生理發育完全成熟的果蠅,除了腹部末端的顏色深淺與形狀之外,還有哪一個微小的身體構造是『雄性特有』且『終生固定不變』的,能讓研究員在不進行基因檢測的情況下,一眼判定牠的性別呢?

太棒了!你能精準避開選項 A 的遺傳學陷阱並選出正確答案,顯示你對黑腹果蠅(Drosophila melanogaster)的解剖構造與生物學特性有著非常紮實的掌握。
果蠅的形態鑑定依據
在遺傳學實驗中,辨識果蠅性別最迅速且可靠的形態特徵,正是位於雄性果蠅前肢(第一對足)第一跗節上的性梳 (Sex combs)。這是一排深色的硬毛構造,主要用於交配時抓握雌性,而雌性果蠅完全缺乏此構造。此外,雖然雌性果蠅體型通常較雄性大,但體色與翅膀形狀(如選項 C、E)通常是品系特徵或突變表現,並非區分性別的通用標準。
