What are the factors that can change in an experiment called?
Environmental factors if you cannot control them.Variable factors if you can control them.See link below for easy explanation:In an experiment the scientist is able to change the independent variable. To insure a fair test, a good experiment has only one independent variable. As the scientist changes the independent variable, he or she observes what happens. - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/what-part-of-an-experiment-is-the-factor-that-you-change#sthash.iyH25Jac.dpufIn an experiment the scientist is able to change the independent variable.

What should have been the only independent variable in paola's experiment?
the zize of the glass
Why does the investigator in an experiment change only one variable?
the investigator only changes one variable in an experiment because they need to see how that one variable reacts. if you wanted to see how the dependent variable changed but changed the independent variable you would not see how the one variable reacts.
What is the definition of idependent variable?
An independent variable is a part of an experiment that might change due to the outcome not being a desired result. The person conducting an experiment about how a medicine might affect a person, might change the number of people tested to gain more insight into the results. The independent variable in that situation would be the number of test subjects.
Why does an investigator change only one variable in an experiment?
So the variable can be at constant.
What is a variable that is change in an experiment?
The dependent variable is the variable that can change in an experiment.
What is an experiment in which only one factor is allowed to vary?
A valid one. An experiment cannot conclusively prove anything if more than one independent variable is altered at a time. That being said, many dependent variables could show change and the experiment would still be valid, as long as only one independent variable was altered at a time. An experiment that changes only one variable at a time is called a controlled experiment.
What does independent variables in science?
Hello, Well what you would be looking for is what an independent variable means. Assuming you understand what a variable is and a dependant variable is, here goes: An independant variable is the variable which you change in an experiment. Note you can only have 1 variable that can change in an experiment and more than one independent variable will result in an unfair experiment. An example is an experiment looking at the growth of trees in the Dark, in a dimly lit room and in the direct sun. The independant variable is the location of the experiment, because this is what is being changed. Simply: The Independent Variable is the variable that is independent and you change. The dependant variable is what changes when the independent variable changes. To conduct an experiment, you will have an independent variable and change that to see how the dependant variable changes with the independent one. Hope I Helped
What variable is the only one that purposely changed to test a hypothesis in an experiment?
Independent variable : )
What variable is the part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment?
The variable of the experiment that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment is called the independent variable... Thank you for letting me answer goodbye... ;)
What should be the only independent variable?
In most real life cases, limiting an experiment to only one independent variable makes the whole experiment a waste of time. More often than not there are several independent variables.
When the chemist designs his experiment what should be the only independent variable?
temperature
What dose controlled experiment mean?
this is an experiment that only one varible is manipulated at a time

Is the independent variable the thing you change?
Yes The independent variable is also known as the manipulated variable. In an experiment where you need to test different objects, the independent variable would be the different objects.
