Controlling for a variable is the act of deliberately varying the experimental conditions in order to take a single variable into account in the prediction of the outcome variable. Controlling tends to reduce the experimental error. A control is something that does not change in the experiment.
What else can I help you with?
Why should as many as possible variables be changed at a time?
They shouldn't, ever. It defies the whole point of a controlled experiment.
How many variables does a controlled experiment have?
An experiment of any kind can have infinitely many variables. A controlled experiment can have just as many, provided that all but one are kept exactly the same.
How many variables would you change in a controlled experiment?
You can only change ONE at a time. That's what makes it controlled. It's the only sure way to know what actually changed the experiment.
How many variables are tested in any controlled experiment?
2
How many variables are tested in a controlled experiment and why?
It depends on the experiment. Normally only one is tested at a time because they can affect the experiment. Variables are tested in a controlled experiment to see whether they affect the outcome and also how.
How many variables are tested during an experiment?
There are three types of variables tested: manipulated variables, controlled variables, and experimental variables.
How many variables can be changed in a controlled experiments?
one
When controlled experiment is not possible why do scientist try to identify as many relevant variables as possible?
to gather data from data to create an controlled experiment

How many dependent variables do you want in an experiment?
In a controlled experiment only 1 variable is being tested.
Why a controlled experiment might be impossible?
A controlled experiment might be impossible if there are too many variables that cannot be controlled or if it is unethical or impractical to manipulate certain variables. Additionally, external factors outside of the researchers' control can also make it difficult to ensure a controlled environment for the experiment.
