Flies: Encyclopedia II - Housefly - Typical behaviors

Houseflies can only take in liquid foods. They spit out saliva on solid foods to pre-digest it, and then suck it back in. They also throw up partially digested matter and eat it again. The flies can walk on vertical planes, and can even hang upside down from ceilings. This is accomplished with the surface tension of liquids secreted by glands near their feet. Lacking eyelids, the flies continually clean their eyes with their forelegs. Most of their taste and smell sensor cells are on hairs on their legs, this is w ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Myiasis - Control Methods - Prevention and Treatment

The first control method is preventive and aims to eradicate the adult flies before they can cause any damage and is called vector control. The second control method is the treatment once the infestation is present, and concerns the infected animals (or humans). Myiasis - Prevention. The principal control method of adult populations of myiasis inducing flies involves insecticide applications in the environment where the target livestock is kept. organophosphorus or organochlorine compounds may be used, usu ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Diptera - Subdivision

About 85,000 species of insect have only two wings and are classified as members of Diptera, There are two generally accepted sub-orders of Diptera. The Nematocera are usually recognized by their elongated bodies and feathery antennae as represented by mosquitoes and crane flies. The Brachycera tend to have a more roundly proportioned body and very short antennae. Beyond that, considerable revision in the taxonomy of the flies has taken place since the introduction of modern cladistic techniques, and much remains uncerta ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Cass Elliot - Mama Cass

Elliot was widely considered the most charismatic member of the Mamas & the Papas due to her sense of humor and optimism, in part because of her large size and weight. She was one of the most beloved members of the group and, because of her warm, distinctive voice, was a large factor in their success. She is best remembered for her vocals on the group's Billboard hits California Dreamin, Monday, Monday, and Words of Love, as well as her first hit as an inde ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Housefly - Life cycle

Each female fly can lay up to 500 eggs (in five batches of 100 eggs each). The eggs are white at about 1.2 mm in length. Within a day, the larvae (maggots) hatch from the eggs; they live and feed in (usually dead and decaying) organic material, such as garbage or feces. They are pale whitish, 3-9 mm long, thinner at the mouth end, and have no legs. After several molts, the maggots crawl to a dry cool place and transform into pupae, colored reddish or brown and about 8mm long. The adult flies then emerge from the pupae. (This whole cycle is k ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Diptera - Overview

Diptera are insects in which the hind wings are reduced to halteres. The study of the diptera is called dipterology. The Diptera, (di-two, ptera – wings)or true flies, are a large order containing an estimated 200,000 species , worldwide, although under half of these have been described. They are one of the major insect orders both in terms of ecological and human (medical and economic) importance. Diptera are a very diverse order with many different ecological roles. Diptera may be predaceous, herbivorous, parasitic (ecto- and endo ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Housefly - Physical description

The adults are 5-8 mm long. Their thorax is greyish, with four dark longitudinal lines on the back. The underside of the abdomen is yellowish. The whole body is covered with hair. They have reddish compound eyes. The females are slightly larger than the males and have a much larger space between the eyes. Like most Diptera, houseflies have only one pair of wings; the hind pair is reduced to small halteres that aid in flight stability. Characteristically, the fourth ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Cass Elliot - Myths

An urban legend holds that Elliot died while choking on a sandwich, sometimes stated as a "ham sandwich". Shortly after her death, but before her autopsy, The Times published an article that quoted her doctor as speculating that she "probably... died as a result of choking on a sandwich while lying in bed". However, the coroner found no food in her trachea, and reported the cause of death as heart failure. Nevertheless, the rumor spread, with the popular imagination adding that the sandwich contained ham. Another version of the story ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Heterozygote advantage - Heterozygote advantage and sickle-cell anemia

Sickle-cell anemia (SCA) is a genetic disorder that is caused by the presence of two incompletely recessive alleles. When a sufferer’s red blood cells are exposed to low-oxygen conditions, the cells lose their healthy round shape and become sickle-shape. This deformation of the cells can cause them to become lodged in capillaries, depriving other parts of the body of precious oxygen. When untreated, a person with SCA may suffer from painful periodic bouts, often causing damage t ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Heterozygote advantage - Heterozygote advantage and cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis, or CF, is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease of the lungs, sweat glands and digestive system. The disorder is caused by the malfunction of the CFTR protein, which controls inter-membrane transport of chloride ions, which is vital to maintaining equilibrium of water in the body. The malfunctioning protein causes viscous mucus to form in the lungs and intestinal tract. Before modern times, children born with CF would have a life expectancy of only a few years, but modern medicine has made it possible for these people to ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Heterozygote advantage - Possible existence of heterozygote advantage with Tay-Sachs disease

An issue of debate is whether Tay-Sachs, the genetic disorder, may have long ago provided a heterozygote advantage in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. The disease is autosomal recessive and starts affecting the individual in infancy with developmental retardation. Paralysis, dementia, blindness and death are also common within the first few years after birth. Approximately one in every forty-five Morrocan Jews is a carrier of Tay-Sachs and the allele frequency is comparable for North American Jews. Heterozygote advantage seems a likel ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Polytope - Convex polytopes

One special kind of polytope is a convex polytope, which is the convex hull of a finite set of points. Convex polytopes can also be represented as the intersection of half-spaces. This intersection can be written as the matrix inequality: where A is an n by m matrix, n being the number of bounding half-spaces and m being the number of dimensions of the polytope. b is an n by 1 column vector. The coefficients of each row of A and b corresp ...

Flies: Encyclopedia II - Polytope - Simplicial decomposition

Now given any convex hull in r-dimensional space (but not in any (r-1)-plane, say) we can take linearly independent subsets of the vertices, and define r-simplices with them. In fact, you can choose several simplices in this way such that their union as sets is the original hull, and the intersection of any two is either empty or an s-simplex (for some s < r). For example, in the plane a square (convex hull of its corners) is the union of the two triangles (2-simplices), defined ...

The Beach was also turned into a 2000 film by the Trainspotting team of writer John Hodge and director Danny Boyle. It starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Virginie Ledoyen. However, some major changes in the plot were made. Sal becomes British, Richard becomes an American, for example, and the romance between him and Françoise is played up. The song during the travel sequence is "8 Ball" by Underworld. Parts of the movie were filmed ...
