The dependent variable is the one you are interested in. It's the one you are looking at, to see if it changes.

For example:

If I want to see if water evaporates faster when it is hotter, I am changing the independent variable, temperature, and hoping to see a difference in the dependent variable, the rate of water evaporation.

I would be keeping the controlled variable of water volume the same between each repeat of the experiment, because that could inadvertently change the dependent variable, which I don't want.
