If plants are grown in five different types of soil, then the plant in Soil 2 will grow the tallest. Independent variable: plants are grown in five different types of soil If three types of batteries are tested for endurance, then Duracell will last the longest. Independent variable: three types of batteries are tested for endurance The independent variable is the variable that is changed in an experiment. It can also be called the manipulated variable. The independent variable can usually be found in the beginning of the hypothesis. Let's say that in the first example, all of the plants receive the same amount of water, the same type of water, the same amount of sunlight, etc. The only thing that is being changed is the type of soil they grow in, and that is the independent variable.

Time is one. Another would be calculating the number of seeds that have certain lengths. The independent variable would be the length.
