Detailed explanation-1: -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. As the scientist changes the independent variable, he or she records the data that they collect.
Detailed explanation-2: -An easy way to think of independent and dependent variables is, when you’re conducting an experiment, the independent variable is what you change, and the dependent variable is what changes because of that. You can also think of the independent variable as the cause and the dependent variable as the effect.
Detailed explanation-3: -The independent variable is the one that the researcher intentionally changes or controls. The dependent variable is the factor that the research measures. It changes in response to the independent variable or depends upon it.
