An independent variable is a factor or condition in an experiment that is deliberately manipulated or changed by the researcher to observe its effect on a dependent variable. It is considered the "cause" in a cause-and-effect relationship, allowing researchers to test hypotheses and establish correlations. The independent variable is typically plotted on the x-axis in a graph.
An independent variable is a factor or condition in an experiment that is manipulated or changed by the researcher to observe its effect on a dependent variable. It is the presumed cause in a cause-and-effect relationship and is typically plotted on the x-axis of a graph. By altering the independent variable, researchers can assess how it influences the outcome of the study.
Since an hypothesis is a statement based on whether the independent variable will have an effect on the dependent variable, it is best to use the words if and then. Example: If water is added to a plant then it would grow.

Independent: The heat Dependent: The result
A controlled experiment involves manipulating one variable (independent variable) while keeping all other variables constant, in order to observe the effect on another variable (dependent variable). This allows researchers to determine a cause-and-effect relationship between the variables being studied.
independent variable
The independent variable is what you are changing in the experiment to get varied results. The dependent variable is the result of what you have changed. So the dependent variable depends on the independent variable. For example, if you are experimenting with the effect of water on height of a plant, the different amounts of water that you give the plant is the independent variable. The height of the plant that you measure as the result of the water is the dependent variable.

Ineqality
An independent variable in science is the part of an experiment that you are purposely changing. For example, if you were to do an experiment on what type of water is best for plants, then the "special water", which might be salt water is the independent variable.

Americans were conformists and lacked the inner resources to lead truly independent lives.
