Diane Dodd took one species of fruit flies split it into two groups. She raised one on maltose based food and the other on a starch based food for several generations (both are stressful and the populations took a long time to establish). At the end of the experiment she mixed the flies to see if they would interbreed. The maltose raised flies showed a strong preference for other maltose rasied flies whereas the starch flies showed a strong preference for starch. Which of the following are a=true b=false regarding this experiment.
A. This is a laboratory simulation of sympatric speciation
B. If Dr. Dodd had transferred a few flies between each colony every generation, speciation would be less likely.
