The factor that changes in response is called the dependent variable.
In the context of an experiment, the word "variables" often comes to mind. Variables are the elements or factors that can change and influence the outcome of the experiment. They include independent variables, which are manipulated, and dependent variables, which are measured. Understanding how these variables interact is crucial for drawing accurate conclusions from experimental results.
The hypothesis is the element of a lab report that accurately describes the experiment or problem and includes the independent and dependent variables. It provides a testable prediction of the relationship between the variables being studied.
Test variables are the factors that are intentionally changed or manipulated by the researcher in an experiment, whereas outcome variables are the factors that are measured and affected by the test variables. Test variables are the independent variables that are controlled by the researcher, while outcome variables are the dependent variables that change in response to the test variables. The relationship between the test variables and outcome variables is explored to determine the effect of the test variables on the outcome variables.
A variable.
dependent variable
the only variables in an experiment are the independent variables [the thing in an experiment your going to change. and the dependent variables [the thing in an experiment your going to measure.
the independent variable controls the dependent variables
dependent variables
dependent variables
Independent variables are variables that can be changed in an experiment, while dependent variables are variables that change as a result of an experiment. In other words, independent variables are what you change, and dependent variables are the results of the experiment.
The two types of variables in an experiment are independent variables, which are controlled by the experimenter and can be manipulated, and dependent variables, which are the outcome or response that is measured in the experiment and may change in response to the independent variable.
Dependent Variable
Independent variables are those that you change in an experiment. Dependent variables are the ones that you measure in an experiment. Dependent variables are influenced by the independent variables that you change, so they are dependent upon the independent variable. Generally, experiments should have only one independent variable.
In a controlled experiment, the Independent variable refers to the variable that is manipulated or altered. The dependent variable, meanwhile, is the result of the experiment.
The test variable (independent variable) controls the outcome variable (dependent variable).
Both variables and both part of an experiment.
An independent variable remains fixed during an experiment while the dependent variables change. The independent variable is typically manipulated by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variables.
