In a statistics experiment, the dependent variable is the event studied and expected to change whenever the independent variable is altered.So, yes, the IV can change when required.
The variable
independent variable
A variable.
Dependent variable. The independent variable is the factor that is changed during the experiment. The dependent variable is the factor that is measured. Written in an "if-then" statement, the IV follows the "if" and the DV follows the "then."
It is the dependent variable.
The Independent variable
In a statistics experiment, the dependent variable is the event studied and expected to change whenever the independent variable is altered.So, yes, the IV can change when required.
Variable
The term "dependent variable" will have different meaning depending on whether it is used in the context of a mathematical expression or statistical experiment. As given in the related link: "In a statistics experiment, the dependent variable is the event studied and expected to change whenever the independent variable is altered." If we are conducting an experiment, where we believe "A" affects "B", for instance eating a lot of chocolate causes pimples, then "A" , eating chocolate is the independent variable and " B" is the event of getting pimples. Other definitions exists which convey the same concept. Other definitions may state that the dependent variable is the attribute or property being measured or identified and is the variable that is expected to change with alterations (manipulation) of the independent variable. See related link.
The dependent variable is the variable that can change in an experiment.
variable is a factor in an experiment that can change
What is a variable in a experiment
by the variables. The variables are manipulated and responding. the manipulated ones are the one that is changed in the experiment. the responding variable is the one who is expected to change.

variable
If you change more that one variable in an experiment, then when the result occurs, you won't know which variable caused the change.
