The independent variable is the thing you are testing or the thing you control. The dependent variable is what you are measuring.
Independent variable: This is the one you're changing in the experiment, so it's the type of solution that you're dropping on the penny. Dependent variable: This is the one that you're measuring. In this case, it's how many drops you can get onto a penny without the water spilling off. Control variable: These are things that you keep the same throughout all of the experiments to make sure that your results are actually due to the changes in the independent variable, not some other random change you made. You used the same penny and dropper.
There are more than three possible controls for any experiment, as a control is just a variable that something is being tested against and compared to. Three would include temperature, color, or weight - all things that may be easily controlled among a group of test subjects.
The quantity of salt added to water is under your control and it will change the boiling point of water,i,e. the temperature of water. So quantity of salt is an independent variable while the temperature of water is dependent variable, when other factors are kept constant.
control
An independent variable is when you do not control what happens In an experiment,however; a dependent variable is when you actually control the experiment,
An independent variable is when you do not control what happens In an experiment,however; a dependent variable is when you actually control the experiment,
When you do an experiment the variable you control is the independent variable, and the variable you measure is the dependent variable.
The independent variable is the one that you change in an experiment. The dependent variable changes because of the independent variable. You control the independent and observe the dependent.
The variable that affects the dependent variable. It is the variable that you control.
easy! thats would be the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE!
Dependent Variable the independent variable is the one you change to get the dependent variable. The control group is the thing that you leave the same throughout your experiment. Hint: You don't want too many independent variables, it will mess up the experiment.
The control, the constant, the independent variable, and the dependent variable.
An Independent variable is what you control; you decide the focus of your experiment and what you control on the independent variable. Dependent variable is what you want to look at or find results for; you decide what you want to see from manipulating your independent variable.
The three types of variables are: Independent: it is the one that you manipulate Dependent: the one that reacts to the changes in the independent variable and is measured in a experiment Control: all the other factors that could affect the dependent variable but are kept constant through out an experiment
The control is the variable that stays the same.The independent variable is the thing(s) that is being changed in the experiment.(don't have too many independent variables o your experiment will not work correctly).The dependant variable is the variable that depends the on the independent variable for the experiment.
The three variable in an experiment are independent, dependent, and controlled. The independent is the variable you control, the dependent is the variable that will change according to the independent. The control is kept constant so they do not affect the dependent.
