It is called the control variable. It is used to compare to your experimental results.

Another name for manipulated varible?
An independent variable. This is because you can manipulate the variable so it is said to be independent of the other variables. This is different from the dependent variable which is the variable you are measuring the change in. For example in an experiment to see how the amount of water given to a plant affects it's height, the amount of water is the independent variable, because it is the variable you can change, while the height of the plant is the dependent variable because we want to see how the change in the amount of water affects it.
Identify an independent variable in an experiment?
AnswerIt is a variable in an equation that is not dependent on any other variable in the equation. For example, in the equation...y = 3x + 5y is a dependent variable because its value depends on the value of x. The variable x is an independent variable.this dosent even make sense that much so try to find a diffrent one thank you..note: bye the way this is correct and i am going the wrong way i said it dosent make that much sense and yeah it does do just belive that this makes sense sorry about that and just forget that note at the top it is very very wrong ...AN independent variable is the variable that the experimentor changes.An independent variable is an input value that one can vary to obtain an output value which is dependent variable.For example in equation y = 3x then x is independent input variable that produces an output y where y is the dependent variable, that depends on the value of x
In a no correlation scatter plot if one variable is increasing what is the other variable doing?
If in fact, as you have said, there is no correlation between the variables, then neither one cares what the other is doing, and the question has no answer.
When adding different amounts of fertilizer to four different aquariums variable is independent or dependent?
Independent. Nuff said.
When a Boolean function said to be a self dual?
apparently whenever you can swap the 0's for 1's and 1's for 0's in the truth table and the truth result remains unchanged.
Is the independent variable the volume of an object or the mass of an object?
The independent variable of any object depends on the experiment being performed on said object. Do distinguish whether volume or mass is the independent variable, we must first know what the experiment is. Remember that an independent variable does not change when the other factors of an experiment (the dependent variables) do change. An independent variable remains constant.
What is an experiment in which only one factor is allowed to vary?
A valid one. An experiment cannot conclusively prove anything if more than one independent variable is altered at a time. That being said, many dependent variables could show change and the experiment would still be valid, as long as only one independent variable was altered at a time. An experiment that changes only one variable at a time is called a controlled experiment.

What increases the validity of an experiment?
Repeated trials of said experiment.

In Solomon Asch's Conformity Experiment what are the variables?
The variables in Solomon Asch's Conformity Experiment were the presence of a unanimous majority opinion, the size of the majority group, and the difficulty of the task. These variables were manipulated to see their effect on the participants' likelihood to conform.

What is a variable zodiac sign?
Variable refers to the zodiac signs of the mutable quality: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces. The signs are said to be adaptable.
Why do you have controls in an experiment?
The controls shows the normal state of affairs, so as to allow a comparison with the experiment results, and to help ascertain that the results obtained were due to the factors tested in the experiment, and not a natural occurence/incidence. Having controls in an experiment can thus be said to validate the experiment itself.
