Responding variable
Another name for responding variable is dependent variable.
All factors in an expermient are called variables. The variable you can change yourself is called the independent variable; the one you expect to change and monitor accordingly (and where you get your results from) is called the dependent variable.
The term 'independent variable' is normally used to refer to the variable that you are investigating in an experiment. A common colloquial definition is 'The variable you change' which is helpful, but not always clear. AQA (A UK examination board) defines it in the following way 'The independent variable is the variable for which the values are changed or selected by the investigator' Aims of experiments are often written in the form 'How does X affect Y?' X would be the independent variable and Y the dependent variable.
No, as the name Variable implies, it can and does change. Since it is 'Independent' its change is not a direct effect of the change of any other Variable. Additionally, the independent variable depends on the dependent variable.

An independent variable. This is because you can manipulate the variable so it is said to be independent of the other variables. This is different from the dependent variable which is the variable you are measuring the change in. For example in an experiment to see how the amount of water given to a plant affects it's height, the amount of water is the independent variable, because it is the variable you can change, while the height of the plant is the dependent variable because we want to see how the change in the amount of water affects it.

An independent variable is the one that when plotted should go on the x-axis. The independent variable, as the name suggests, is not dependent on anything; if you're conducting an experiment, it would be the variable that you have control over to affect the results.
