A control refers to the "control group" in a scientific experiment. The control group is compared to the experimental group.
For example, pretend you are experimenting to see if a drug works. Group A (The experimental group) is given the real drug, and Group B (The control group) is given a fake drug (placebo) to compare results.
The control is whatever you base your experiment on. No control = you can't compare your data to anything = good luck making sense out of your experiment. You aren't following the scientific method if there is no control.
To be able to compare the results to something.

It is important to have controlled variables in a scientific experiment because it is the variable that remains the same it doesn't change. Its a consent & can be measured against.
In a experiment, you would need to compare the results to other results to control.
The control of the scientific method is the results compared to this part of the experiment.
In a scientific experiment, a control is the part of the experiment that remains constant and is used as a baseline to compare against the experimental group. It helps researchers determine the effect of the variable being tested in the experiment.
The control is whatever you base your experiment on. No control = you can't compare your data to anything = good luck making sense out of your experiment. You aren't following the scientific method if there is no control.

A scientific control is used to minimize the unintended influence of other variables on the same system

I assume the term for something that is not changed during an experiment is called, the control. Any changes observed in the experiment, can be compare to the control, which is still be in the original form before the experiment began.
