Independent variable
experimental control
the control for multiple variables in a experiment
Control variables are kept constant throughout an experiment to ensure that any changes in the dependent variable are due to the manipulation of the independent variable. Experimental variables, on the other hand, are the factors that are deliberately changed by the researcher to observe their effect on the dependent variable.
In an experiment, the factors or variables kept the same in both the control and experimental groups are known as constants. These can include environmental conditions (like temperature and light), the type of materials used, and the duration of the experiment. Keeping these variables constant ensures that any observed differences between the groups can be attributed solely to the independent variable being tested. This helps to enhance the reliability and validity of the experimental results.
experimental control
A control sample is the experiment under regular conditions. An experimental sample is the experiment in which different variables are changed.

You establish a controlled variable from which you can compare your results from your experimental variables.
Independent variables. If the treatment has no effect , the dependent variables for both the control and experimental group may be the same. cw: In some studies, there is no specific control group. For instance, in a drug study where subjects are given a random amount of the drug (from 0 up to some presumed safe level) then you cannot easily tell what the "experimental" group is -- you can't compare everyone else to the two subjects who got a placebo (0 mg/kg). You can tell whether the treatment is having a linear effect, etc.
Experimental variables include independent variables, which are manipulated by the researcher to observe their effect, and dependent variables, which are measured as the outcome of the experiment. For example, in a study on plant growth, the amount of sunlight (independent variable) can be varied, while the growth rate of the plants (dependent variable) is recorded. Other examples include control variables, which are kept constant to ensure a fair test, such as soil type and water amount.
The variables that must remain the same between the control group and experimental group is are called controlled variables, and include everything except the experimental variable.
