DYO #2: Fruit Fly Population Investigation

How does independent variable changing the numbers from male to female affect dependent variable the 2 of adults in 3 weeks ?

If you put 2 females and one male in a jar with a food source for 3 weeks i exspect to have 322 fruit fly's

Because fruit fly's lay 20 eggs a day . so by the second day they will have 40 baby's .
There's a lot of interesting things about fruit fly's their small the male has a black dark bottom ,and the female has a lighter one they live for 8 weeks and die under good conditions .
                                                   PROCEDURE
1) Pick the combination or fruit flies ,
2) We put the fruit fly to sleep with fly nap
3)Then determaning witch we put the food inside the jar
4)Record the results counts how many fruit fly's they are
