You need a control for any experiment. It doesn't sound like this particular experiment is of the utmost importance but it's a good habit to get into if you plan more important ones. I have no idea what the control would be.
In a experiment, you would need to compare the results to other results to control.
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.
Yes only when the experiment is obvious, for example, if I wanted to see what drink would be healthier for your body water or juice it is obvious that water is healthier because it contains no chemicals
The independent variable is the part of the experiment that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment. The dependent variable is the part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable.
A good control would be ten mice given food with no vitamins added.

The cups with yeast and nothing serve as a control in the experiment to compare the rate of reaction when hydrogen peroxide is added. By observing how the control cup behaves without the hydrogen peroxide, we can compare any changes in the cups with yeast and hydrogen peroxide to see the effect of the reaction.

I would assume you meant "The Angel experiment..."It had suspense, humor, and it had good content... awesome book!
Any basic experiment has a control and a variable. The control remains unchanged with no experiments. It is left to exist in it's normal state. The variable is the test subject. This is what you use when you experiment. Once you have both a control and a variable, you keep a daily log or journal to monitor any progress or failure. Good journals/logs are kept from start to finish and explain every detail of the experiment from start to finish. A good scientist also writes a post log to record any ideas they may want to remember for future use or experimentation. (i.e. What I would do different next time)

There are many characteristics present during a good experiment. For example, if the experiment provides unbiased estimates for uncertainties and factor effects then the experiment should be considered good.
Sounds like a good fieldwork experiment.
