Imagine you are investigating a mutation that causes rabbits to have floppy ears rather than upright ears. Design an experiment to determine if this new trait is a sex-linked gene or a gene found on one of the other chromosomes. Write out the following components of the experiment. a) Purpose:

b) Hypothesis:

c) Prediction:

d) Describe the basic procedure you would use:

e) What results would you expect to see if the trait is sex-linked?

f) What results would you expect to see if the trait is not sex-linked?

a) Purpose: To find out if the new trait is sex-linked or a gene found on one of the other chromosomes.

b) Hypothesis: I think that the new trait is a sex-linked gene.

c) Prediction: If the new bunny that is born has floppy ears immediately, then it is a sex-linked gene.

d) Describe the basic procedure you would use: I would follow the Scientific method and use the data I collected from my experiment to arrive at a conclusion.

e) What results would you expect to see if the trait is sex-linked?

If the rabbit has floppy ears when it is born.

f) What results would you expect to see if the trait is not sex-linked?

If the rabbit has upright ears despite being born by parents that have floppy ears.
