How would you answer 'does a fly have a brain & heart?' if asked?

Question

....

Answer 1

I'd ask for a bit of time, check by googling for a website or two and take a look at a reasonably reliable reference book.  Then I'd answer and cite my sources.  I know it's incorrect to state all animals have hearts and brains.  I'm confident I know the answer in this case, but I'd still take some time to check.

Answer 2

all living animals/bugs have hearts and brains without a brain the fly would have no idea how to fly without a heart it wouldnt be able to live there anoying little so and so's though!! lol

Answer 3

it would have to be a brain about the size of the tip of a needle, and a heart that size to or it wouldn't go around landing on peoples food and getting moms all angry

Answer 4

Olfactory nerves.

Flies do not have brains and hearts like us.

Answer 5

Technically, they have centralized nervous systems and their blood is pumped throughout their bodies, but they cannot think reasonably nor love. So I'd say no.

Answer 6

I'd say "Get lost". A heart & brain is NOT required in all cases.

Answer 7

Why yes. Need a heart to pump blood around the body to survive and a brain to fly.

Answer 8

Yes it does.

Answer 9

The one that looked as if it were doing to land on my dinner last night--after 1 smack definatly did not have any organs

Answer 10

Yes, they have a brain.  Their "heart" are not hearts as you know it, but several bulbus-like swellings along the central artery that do the pushing of the blood.
