Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes. Independent Variable is: Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes.

Manipulated - Independent Variable – X-axis Variable is: To insure a fair test, a good experiment has only one independent variable MIX Manipulated - Independent Variable – X-axis

Independent Variable is not: Kept the same!

Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes. Independent Variable is: Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes.

Independent Variable is: if you open a faucet (the independent variable), the quantity of water flowing (dependent variable) changes in response--you observe that the water flow increases.

Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes. Independent Variable is: Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes.

Independent Variable is:

Factor that will be measured in an experiment Dependent Variable is: Factor that will be measured in an experiment

Dependent Variable – Responds – Y-axis Variable is: The scientist focuses his or her observations on the dependent variable to see how it responds to the change made to the independent variable. DRY Dependent Variable – Responds – Y-axis

Variable that is changed!! Dependent Variable is not: Variable that is changed!!
