Genes, the basic parts of cells which are passed down from parents to
children, may have something to do with human behavior. In an experiment,
scientists put flies into a glass tube and placed a light at the end of
it. Some of the flies began flying toward the light, some began walking,
and some did not move at all. On the basis of the flies' actions, they
were separated into different groups: flies that love light, flies that
like light, and flies that like the dark. The researchers found that these
three groups of flies had variations in a particular set of genes. This
suggested to the researchers that the variations in these genes might explain
the differences in the flies' behaviors. If genes influence behaviors in
flies, why not in humans too?
