Hannah Chuhchu036@ucr.eduTied up hormones: A simple experiment to observe insect puberty
Did you know that insects go through puberty too? If they do go through puberty, how? One early question of scientists studying insect development was whether insects use hormones to mature into an adult, kind of like us! An experiment that was done to test this idea, called a ligation experiment, involves tying a string in the middle of an immature insect to block normal hormone signaling in half of the insect. This video will demonstrate the ligation experiment using house fly larvae to show what happens when only half of a larva can receive hormones!
