Suppose that zonosemata flies whose own wings had been clipped and reattached were attacked more frequently than untreated zonosemata flies. how would this result affect the reliability of the other experimental results? view available hint(s) suppose that zonosemata flies whose own wings had been clipped and reattached were attacked more frequently than untreated zonosemata flies. how would this result affect the reliability of the other experimental results? all results for the experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid. all results for the experimental groups using zonosemata flies would be invalid. all results for the experimental groups using houseflies would be invalid. the reliability of the experimental results would not change.

All results for the experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.

Explanation:

The experimental group involving wing surgery would not lead to correct results because it is a direct parameter that is impaired. This has been already clearly stated in the question that these flies are prone to attack compared to those which are not treated. There could be several reasons for that such as: (1) the reattachment would not have been successful, and/or (2) the flies' health (fitness) status would have been compromised.

On the other hand, it is not correct that all experimental groups will lead to incorrect results because the untreated flies were not attacked (or less attacked). Similarly, there is no condition given for houseflies rather only zonosemata flies. So 3rd option is also not possible. Finally, the reliability of the results would definitely change because the treated flies would be more attacked and lead to a clear difference in results.
