The independent variable is the item that varies through out the experiment.
The dependent variable is what changes due, and that is what we get our information from.
For example:
Patrick had a science experiment. He had 2 cups filled with dirt. Cup A had more water than Cup B. Each cup held the same type of seed and were both put in equal sunlight at equal amounts of times. What is the independent variable in this experiment?
Answer: The water.
The dependent variable would be the plant growth.
*An easy tip to remember this is using the scientific title.
"The effect of _______ on _______"
The first blank is always the INDEPENDENT Variable, thus making the second blank a DEPENDENT. So in this experiment it would be "The effect of AMOUNTS OF WATER on PLANT GROWTH."
This shows that the Independent Variable = Water
Dependent = Plant Growth

What does independent variables in science?
Hello, Well what you would be looking for is what an independent variable means. Assuming you understand what a variable is and a dependant variable is, here goes: An independant variable is the variable which you change in an experiment. Note you can only have 1 variable that can change in an experiment and more than one independent variable will result in an unfair experiment. An example is an experiment looking at the growth of trees in the Dark, in a dimly lit room and in the direct sun. The independant variable is the location of the experiment, because this is what is being changed. Simply: The Independent Variable is the variable that is independent and you change. The dependant variable is what changes when the independent variable changes. To conduct an experiment, you will have an independent variable and change that to see how the dependant variable changes with the independent one. Hope I Helped
Dependent and independent variables and control?
The control is the variable that stays the same.The independent variable is the thing(s) that is being changed in the experiment.(don't have too many independent variables o your experiment will not work correctly).The dependant variable is the variable that depends the on the independent variable for the experiment.

Independent variable, is variable that the experimenter manipulates

It can, but need not, affect the outcome of the experiment variable.
