well a independent variable is usually the one that is manipulated and is the x axis while the dependent is the one that depends on the independent and is the responding variable and the x-axis!A little saying i use is dry mix/dependent,responding,y axis/manipulated variable,independent,x axis.tale the first letter of all of that and you get dry mix.
the independent variable controls the dependent variables
The test variable (independent variable) controls the outcome variable (dependent variable).
In an experiment, the independent variable is manipulated or controlled by the researcher, while the dependent variable is measured to see the effect of the independent variable. The independent variable is the cause, while the dependent variable is the effect. Changes in the independent variable are expected to cause changes in the dependent variable.
It depends on what you are looking at. If you want to look at changes in variable Y when a variable X is changed, then X is the independent variable and Y is the dependent. But if you want to look at changes in X which accompany changes in Y, then Y is the independent variable and X is the dependent.
The independent variable is the thing you change, the dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent variable, it could also be referred to as the effect, and the control group is the constant, the thing that stays the same and the variable that you compare your results to.
In an equation like y = mx + b, such as y = 3x + 2, x is the independent - YOU put in the x. y is the ANSWER you get, depending on what you used for x. To test, do exactly that - you choose what to do for your independent variable, and see what happens for the y. Works for both math and science. Change the independent variable, and compare how your dependent variables change depending on what changes you made to the independent.
The independent variable is the type of plant being studied (e.g., species, environmental conditions), while the dependent variable is the number or behavior of stomata present on the plant's leaves (e.g., density, aperture size, responsiveness to environmental stimuli).
An "Indepndent Variable" is something in the expieriment that can be changed. And a "Dependent Variable" is something that doesn't change.
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... ;)
The three scientific variables are independent variables, dependent variables, and controlled variables. The independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the researcher. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured or observed in response to the changes in the independent variable. Controlled variables are the factors that are kept constant to ensure that they do not influence the relationship between the independent and dependent variables.
It allows you to compare two dependent variables when they are related to the same third variable (which may or may not be independent). For example, you could look at the heights and masses of a group of people, with age as the independent variable.
