The lifespan of flies is short due to their high reproductive rate and the presence of predators and environmental factors that limit their survival. Flies prioritize rapid reproduction over longevity to ensure the continuation of their species. Additionally, flies have a high metabolic rate, leading to faster aging and a shorter lifespan.
