Which factor does the investigator change during an investigation?
By mistake.
Do you mean "responding variable"? In a scientific investigation, you try to change only one thing to see what happens. The thing you change is the manipulated variable (also called the independent variable). The result of this change is the responding variable (also called the dependent variable). For example, what if you measure the temperature of a beaker of water, then put it in the refrigerator for 24 hours, then measure again. The change in the temperature from the room to the fridge is the manipulated variable (you controlled it). Any change in the water temperature is the responding variable. It responded to the change you made.
A variable is something that can change in a experiment. A globe can't really change, so no. -yoda
They are synonyms.Some people use the word 'argument' for the 'formal parameter' and 'parameter' for the 'actual parameter', others do on the other way around.PS:example for the formal parameters (function declaration):int myfun (const char *s, int p);example for the actual parameters (function calling):myfun ("Hello", 44);
Pass by value.
Yes, passing a variable by reference gives you a pointer to the original variable, meaning you can change its value from within the function being called and the change will affect the original variable.
An investigator may change the value of a variable parameter during an investigation to test its impact on the outcome or to explore different scenarios. By adjusting the variable, the investigator can gather more information and make informed decisions based on the results of the investigation.
A parameter in an experiment that can change is known as a variable.
The investigator changes the independent variable in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
I will change the independent variable in my investigation. This variable is the one I manipulate or control to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
You only change one variable in an investigation because if you change more than one you won't know which change affected the data.
controlled parameters the factor that stays the same in ALL groups variable parameters the factor(s) that change between control groups and variable groups

When conducting scientific experiments, the researcher manipulates an "independent variable" (i.e., some physical parameter that can be controlled) in order to measure the effects of such manipulation on a "dependent variable" (i.e., the results of changing the physical parameter of interest). For example, one could lower the temperature in a refrigerator (the temperature being an independent variable) and wait to observe when water left in the refrigerator turns to ice (the change from liquid water to the solid form being the dependent variable). Thus, the change in the dependent variable depends on the manipulation of the independent variable. The independent variable is the variable you change, the dependant variable is what changes as a result of what you change.
By changing only one variable at a time, the investigator can determine the specific effect that variable has on the outcome of the experiment. This allows for a clear cause-and-effect relationship to be established. Changing multiple variables simultaneously would make it difficult to determine which variable is responsible for any observed changes.
Manipulated variables are also known as independent variables. These are the variable which you change in an investigation. Plotted on the x axis.

The independent variable is the variable you change, the dependant variable is what changes as a result of what you change.
Changing only one variable allows the investigator to clearly determine the effect that particular variable has on the outcome of the experiment. This helps in establishing a cause-and-effect relationship between the variable being tested and the observed result. Manipulating multiple variables simultaneously can introduce complexity and confound the results, making it harder to draw accurate conclusions.
