What are the differences between independent and dependent variables?
An independent variable is the variable you can change in an experiment. On a graph, it's on the X-axis. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. It is literally dependent on it. The dependent variable goes on the Y-axis.
A statement of a possible relationship between the independent and dependent variables?
A dependent variable is a variable dependent on the independent variable. A control variable is something you want to try to keep the same. A dependent variable is something you measure. An independent variable is something you change.
How are plant and animals life dependent on the water cycle?
all the plant and animals depend on the water cycle some more than others
Can the water cycle occur without living organisms?
The main features water cycle would still exist if there was no life on earth, however the carbon cycle (as we know it) is dependent on life.
What is scientific Dependent variable?
A dependent variable is a factor in an experiment that is influenced by another factor. An example might help to clarify. You are performing an experiment in which you are observing how sunlight affects plant height. Plant height is the dependent variable because it is dependent upon how much sunlight the plant receives. Sunlight is an example of an independent variable. It is not influenced by anything in this experiment, but may be changed to observe its effect on the dependent variable. It is possible to have more than one dependent variable in an experiment, but only one independent variable.
What are the dependent and independent variable in what is the water cycle?
independent variable is the water i dont know
What is the dependent variable in an non-experiment project which describes the water cycle?
If you are not doing an experiment, there is no variable.
How do you use the word dependent variable in a sentence?
the water in the experiment was the dependent variable in this situation
What best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and an independent variable in a scientific investigation?
The independent variable is what you are changing in the experiment to get varied results. The dependent variable is the result of what you have changed. So the dependent variable depends on the independent variable. For example, if you are experimenting with the effect of water on height of a plant, the different amounts of water that you give the plant is the independent variable. The height of the plant that you measure as the result of the water is the dependent variable.
What is a dependnent variable?
A dependent variable depends on the independent variable. If you are doing an experiment about how temperature affects the heat of water then the independent variable would be the temperature, as that is what you are going to change, and the dependent variable the water as the temperature of the water depends on the temperature surrounding it.
What is the dependent variable between oil and water?
Water
What is the control and independent and dependent variable in the 'how many drops of H2O can fit on a penny'?
The controlled variable is the penny. The independent variable is the water. The dependent variable is the amount of water able to fit on the penny.
What causes change in a dependent variable?
The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable, so when the independent variable changes, so does the dependent variable.
What is describe as dependent variable?
a dependent variable is something you mesure, e.g the temp of water hehehe i like coke not water u know hat i am saying to u
What is a resultant variable?
A resulting variable is the variable in the experiment that you don't change. As when the manipulating variable is the variable that you do change.
Things that may change during a experiment are called?
'Variables' are any factors that can be controlled, changed or measured. There are two types: the independent variable and the dependent variable. The independent variable is the condition that you change and the dependent variable is what you are observing. So if you are trying to measure the effect of water on plant growth the water would be the independent variable and the plant growth would be the dependent variable.
A student wishes to test the hypothesis that adding antifreeze to water lowers the freezing point of the water What would be the dependent variable?
The dependent variable would be the freezing point of the solution.
