Detailed explanation-1: -In this case, the independent variable is the TEMPERATURE. If an experiment is conducted to see how temperature affects the number of cricket chirps per minute, then a cricket will chirp more frequently in warmer temperatures than in cooler temperatures because crickets are more active in a warmer environment.
Detailed explanation-2: -Independent Variable The independent variable is the one condition that you change in an experiment. Example: In an experiment measuring the effect of temperature on solubility, the independent variable is temperature. The dependent variable is the variable that you measure or observe.
Detailed explanation-3: -Temperature is what you manipulate and is not depended on any other factor. That is why you call temperature an independent variable. It is also called manipulated variable.
Detailed explanation-4: -The one variable that is purposely changed to test a hypothesis is called the manipulated variable (also called the independent variable). In your cricket experiment, the manipulated variable is the air temperature.
Detailed explanation-5: -Independent variable-the light intensity (how close the light is). Dependant variable-the number of oxygen bubbles given off (the rate of photosynthesis). Controlled variables-the size of the pondweed, the volume of water used and its temperature.
Detailed explanation-6: -As the temperature rises, it becomes easier to reach a certain activation energy, thereby allowing chemical reactions, such as the ones that allow a cricket to chirp, to occur more rapidly. Conversely, as the temperature falls, the reaction rates slow, causing the chirping to diminish along with it.
