Study of the Correlation Between an Individual's Hair Colour and Gender Using a Verbal Survey

Methods: In order to examine the relationship between an individual's hair colour and their gender, a verbal study of 24 students was conducted. <br>Study Site: The study took place indoors, in a laboratory at York University, located in Toronto, Canada. No equipment was used.<br>Hypothesis: It was hypothesized that there would be no correlation between hair colour and gender, because the genes that code for each respective phenotype are separate.<br>Predictions:1) Hair colour and gender will be independent of each other.2) There will not be any pattern of either male or female students having a particular hair colour.3) Whether any correlation exists between hair colour and gender will be difficult to examine as an individual's natural hair colour is easily altered by the use of hair dyes.
