Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The variable that changes in relationship to changes in another variable(s) is called dependant variable
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A dependent variable is the variable that changes as a result of the independent variable manipulation. It’s the outcome you’re interested in measuring, and it “depends” on your independent variable. In statistics, dependent variables are also called: Response variables (they respond to a change in another variable)

Detailed explanation-2: -A Dependent variable is what happens as a result of the independent variable. For example, if we want to explore whether high concentrations of vehicle exhaust impact incidence of asthma in children, vehicle exhaust is the independent variable while asthma is the dependent variable.

Detailed explanation-3: -The other name for the dependent variable is the Predicted variable(s). The dependent variables are named as such because they are the values that are predicted or assumed by the predictor / independent variables.

Detailed explanation-4: -Independent variables cause changes in another variable. The researchers control the values of the independent variables. They are controlled or manipulated variables. Experiments often refer to them as factors or experimental factors.

Detailed explanation-5: -Variables are given a special name that only applies to experimental investigations. One is called the dependent variable and the other the independent variable. The independent variable is the variable the experimenter manipulates or changes, and is assumed to have a direct effect on the dependent variable.
