What is part of an experiment that is not being tested an is used for comparision?

This probably refers to the 'control'. In a very simple experiment you may add food colouring to a solution to see what colour it sent the solution. You would also have a second sample of the solution which you would not add food colouring to. This would be your control and would serve the purpose of making sure that the solution wouldn't have changed colour by itself anyway. It would also be there for comparison, so that you could compare the colours to see just how much the colour had changed.

What is the controlled experiment in a science experiment?

The control in a science experiment is the same thing as a constant. It is something that you keep the same the entire experiment. For example if you were testing how various locations affect temperature your constants would be the thermometer you used and the time for measuring the temperature. If you don't have a constant than your experiment results won't be accurate.
