Survey ten people (five females, five males) regarding which of the following characteristics they value most and which they value least in a partner: Understanding, Wealth, Sense of Humor, Physical Appearance, Family Oriented. Using the statistics acquired through the research conducted regarding the perfect mate, generate the following information:

Convert the raw numbers from the table created in class into percentages, keeping the genders separate. (Divide the number of times a particular trait was listed by the total number of participants taking part in the survey, separated by gender. Example: divide the number of females listing a trait by the number of females taking the survey. If five females agree a trait is most desirable and twelve females take the survey, then 42% of the surveyed females agree that trait is most desirable).

Answer the following questions in complete sentences:

Based on the data represented by the table, what is the chief characteristic males look for in a mate? 

Based on the data represented by the table, what is the chief characteristic females look for in a mate? 

Based on the data represented by the table, what are the common characteristics males and females look for in a mate? Which characteristic is least favored?

Convert the data from the table into a pie chart or bar graph, complete with appropriate labeling and legend (Example: one pie chart could depict the traits males seek and another represents the findings for the females; a bar chart could compare the number of responses to a trait by gender).

Summarize what the graphic representation conveys.

Type your findings and create your chart in a Word document in MLA format as addressed in class. Your draft must be in MLA format, which includes an MLA header, one-inch margins all around, proper page numbers, a title, and double spacing. Your submission should have the same appearance as the sample MLA essays in The Little Seagull Handbook and Research & Composing in the Disciplines. Remember, MLA format advocates using a formal tone and active voice; if your submission is not written in this manner, expect to receive less than a C on the assignment.
