An experiment has to have a varible, if it doesn't that it's probably and engineering experiment or robotics. I think its called a "control"

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


What variable is the part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment?

The variable of the experiment that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment is called the independent variable... Thank you for letting me answer goodbye... ;)


What role does independent and dependent variable play in controlled experiments?

The independent variable in an controlled experiment is what you are changing (for example, amount of water or sunlight a plant gets). The dependent variable changes because of the independent variable. Its the outcome of the independent variable.


What is an independemt variable?

An independent variable is the variable in the experiment that affects the other variable. For example, in an experiment that tests the affect of the amount of fertilizer on plant growth, the amount of fertilizer is the independent variable and the plant growth is the dependent variable. This is because the plant growth DEPENDS on the amount of fertilizer.


What is a variable that is used is a independent variable?

An independent variable is the variable of the experiment that the dependent variable depends on. For example, in an experiment testing the effects of soil quality on a plant's growth, the dependent variable would be the plant's growth and the independent variable would be the quality of the soil.

What is an example of an independent variable in an experiment?

The independent variable represents the input or causes, or are tested to see if they are the cause.


What a independent variable?

An independent variable in science is the part of an experiment that you are purposely changing. For example, if you were to do an experiment on what type of water is best for plants, then the "special water", which might be salt water is the independent variable.

What are the independent and Dependant variable in a science experiment?

In a science experiment, the independent variable is the factor that is deliberately changed or manipulated by the researcher to observe its effects. The dependent variable, on the other hand, is the outcome or response that is measured and is expected to change in response to the manipulation of the independent variable. For example, in an experiment testing the effect of sunlight on plant growth, the amount of sunlight (independent variable) is varied, while the plant growth (dependent variable) is measured.


What kind of variable is part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable?

Dependent Variable the independent variable is the one you change to get the dependent variable. The control group is the thing that you leave the same throughout your experiment. Hint: You don't want too many independent variables, it will mess up the experiment.


The single variable that is deliberately changed in the experiment is the?

Independent variable. The dependent variable is the one that is affected by the independent variable, for example-y=2x+2This is the equation of a line. X is deliberately changed to find y hence - y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.


In an experiment what is a variable?

it is anything you can experiment on in you project The variable in the experiment allow you to test alternate possible situations and solutions to confirm the validity if the experiment or to disprove it.
