Yes, indeed the X-axis is the independent variable.

And as such, the X-axis is the dependent variable.

You can do the plot any way you want. However, it's quite common to have the independent variable along the x-axis.

What are the differences between independent and dependent variables?

An independent variable is the variable you can change in an experiment. On a graph, it's on the X-axis. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. It is literally dependent on it. The dependent variable goes on the Y-axis.


Why can Biology be described as having both a vertical and a horizontal scale explain what that means?

Almost everything in Biology can be explained or represented on a scale or graph; the graphs use to represent data have two axes. The horizontal axis is called the X axis or the abscissa. The vertical axis is called the Y axis or the ordinate. The values of the independent variable are measured on the X axis and those of the dependent variable are on the Y axis. There are three types of graphs that you can use, two for use when the independent variable is quantitative (numeric form)and one for use when it is qualitative data (written form).


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.


Is x dependent or independent?

x is commonly used as a variable to present some quantity, but I cannot say whether this is dependent or independent without knowing what x represents or to what you are asking it is independent from.

Is the independent axis on the x axis?

Generally speaking, yes. The variable x is generally used as the independent variable. And y is generally the variable the depends on the value of x. So in most examples the x axis and the "independent" axis are the same.
