Independent, it is in the name, more variables are:
dependant variable- the one you keep the same
control variable- mearsuring variable

In an experiment there are two groups. Which group is not changed in any way?
the control.constantif you make no changes, then its not called an experiment...The control is variable
The one factor that differs in a controlled experiment?
The Variable is the one factor that differs in a controlled experiment.
What is the variable in which the investigator changes or manipulates during the experiment?
the experimental variable, also called the independent variable
What is the definition of manipulative variable?
A manipulated variable is also called an independent variable. It is the thing in an experiment you change or manipulate. For example, if i am doing an experiment to see how water affects the growth on plants, the amount of water is the manipulated variable.
What is a controlled experiment?
A controlled experiment is one in which only one variable is changed at a time. A variable is something which can vary, or have different values. Scientific investigations always involve three types of variables: 1) The independent variable: this is the variable which you deliberately alter, so you will know its values before you start the experiment. For example, if you want to know how the amount of light a plant gets affects its growth, you must give aome plants different amounts of light. Since you need to choose the amounts, you will know the values of this variable before you start the experiment. 2) The dependentvariable:this is the variable you must measure to find out if it changes as a result of you changing the independent variable. Since you have to measure it to find out its values, you will not know the values (ie the results) before doing the experiment. In the plant example you wouls have to find some way of measuring plant growth in the different light conditions. 3) Controlvariables: these are any other variables which may affect the values of your dependent variable, so they need to be kept constant to make it a fair test. In our example, things like the temperature or the amount of water could also alter plant growth, so they would have to be kept constant. These variables are also called confounding variables. The basic principle is only alter one variable (the independent variable) at a time; keep everything else the same.

What is deliberately changed in an experiment?
The variable.
What is a factor is deliberately changed in an experiment?
independent variable
The single variable that is deliberately changed in the experiment is the?
Independent variable. The dependent variable is the one that is affected by the independent variable, for example-y=2x+2This is the equation of a line. X is deliberately changed to find y hence - y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.
What describes the independent variable?
The variable is an experiment that is manipulated by the scientist. APEX
What is a Factor that is deliberately changed in a experiment?
the anwer is a variable( the thng that will change over time in the experiment
In a scientific experiment the what is the thing the experimenter deliberately changed while observing?
The independent variable.
In a scientific experiment the is the thing the experimenter deliberately changed while observing?
The independent variable.
What describes an independent variableWhich of the following describes an independent variable?
for Apex: the variable is an experiment that is manipulated by the scientist.
What is the variable that is changed in an experiment?
The independent variable is the variable that is changed during an experiment.
What is the variable that is changed by a scientist in a experiment?
The dependent variable is the variable that can change in an experiment.
The variable that is changed in the experiment is?
The Independent variable is the variable being manipulated or changedThe dependent Variable is the observed result of the changed independent variable
How many variables are changed in a experiment?
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.
