This is a picture of a fly. A fly, being a living organism, represents science, specifically the life sciences, because it is a living creature. Instantly, I thought of biology because of the way that biology analyzes the different aspects of life, including what the diet of the fly is, how it fits into the food chain, what role it plays in its environment, how its body carries out different functions, and so on.

If I had to think of a question that I could apply to the fly, it would probably be related to one of the observations that I have already made. For example, what is the fly population here like compared to somewhere else? What are the mating habits of flies? What attracts them? How do other factors in the surrounding environment affect the fly population?

Of course, many of these answers might seem fairly obvious already, but there is always more information to be found, and something as simple as a fly may be able to spark hundreds of questions and answers concerning the world around us.
