Science skills: Measuring results
- Scientific experiments are performed to determine the relationship between two or more variables.
- An independent variable is a variable that is manually changed. An experiment should have only one independent variable.
- A dependent variable is a variable that will change as a result of a change in the independent variable.
- The dependent and independent variables are measured to determine the relationship between them.
- A control variable is a variable that must be kept the same throughout the experiment to make the test fair.
- Changing a control variable will make it unclear if that change or a change in the independent variable is responsible for a change in the dependent variable
