Is the variable that you purposely change... variable i change?

Yes, the variable that is intentionally manipulated or adjusted during an experiment is known as the independent variable. This variable is controlled by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable.


Does the independent varialbe change?

Yes, the independent variable does change because it is what a scientist purposely changes during an experiment.


The variable that is measured in an experiment is the variable?

The Independent/Manipulative variable is the variable that you purposely change, and the Dependent/Responsive variable is the variable that changes as a rest of the Independent variable. You measure the dependent variable to see the effects of the Independent variable.


What is the difference between the independent and dependant variable s in an experiment?

The independent variable is the variable that is purposely changed or manipulated by the researcher. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured or observed as a result of changes in the independent variable. In other words, the independent variable causes a change in the dependent variable.


In an experiment the hypothesis is If the wavelength of the light shining on a plant is shortened the rate of photosynthesis is slowed down. If this experiment is performed the dependent variable . wi?

The dependent variable in this experiment would be the rate of photosynthesis. This is the variable that is being measured and is expected to change in response to the manipulation of the independent variable, which is the wavelength of light.

What is the factor that you can change to test a hypothesis?

The factor that you can change to test a hypothesis is called the independent variable. It is the variable that is manipulated or controlled by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable, which is the outcome being measured in the experiment.
