2. What is the student’s independent variable?
10 (1)
A student is interested in the effect of the temperature of water in her aquarium on the activity level of her fish. She divides her aquarium water and fish into 3 aquariums, one that is maintained at room temperature (about 70F), one that is heated to 80F, and one that is cooled to 60F. At 6:pm each day, she watched the fish for 30 minutes and records her observation about their activity.
