A dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment. The dependent variable responds to the independent variable. It is called dependent because it "depends" on the independent variable. In a scientific experiment, you cannot have a dependent variable without an independent variable.

Example: You are interested in how stress affects heart rate in humans. Your independent variable would be the stress and the dependent variable would be the heart rate. You can directly manipulate stress levels in your human subjects and measure how those stress levels change heart rate.

What is a independant and dependant variale?

An independent variable is the factor that is manipulated or changed in an experiment to observe its effects, while the dependent variable is the outcome or response that is measured as a result of the changes made to the independent variable. For example, in a study examining the effect of fertilizer on plant growth, the amount of fertilizer used is the independent variable, and the growth of the plants is the dependent variable. The relationship between the two helps researchers understand cause-and-effect dynamics.
