Detailed explanation-1: -Yes, an experiment should test only one variable at a time. This ensures that the experimental outcome is clearly due to one identifiable factor.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a “controlled experiment” only one variable is changed at a time. All other variables should be unchanged or “controlled”.
Detailed explanation-3: -An experiment usually has three kinds of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled. The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist. To insure a fair test, a good experiment has only ONE independent variable.
Detailed explanation-4: -Independent Variables To ensure a fair test, a good experimental inquiry only has one independent variable and that variable should be something that can be measured quantitatively. For example, experimental inquiries about plants may include such independent variables as: Volume of water given to plants.
Detailed explanation-5: -The three main types of controls are positive, negative, and experimental controls.
