and where relationship can be tested
iii. An aspect of a theory that cannot
change as part of the interaction
within the theory
iv. These are the conditions that are
manipulated, controlled, or observed
a. i and ii only c. i, ii, and iii
b. ii and iii only d. i, ii, and iv
2. Which of the following differentiate
independent from dependent variable?
a. The independent variable is the
effect
of the experiment while the
dependent
variable is the cause.
b. The independent variable is the
influencer of the experiment while
the dependent variable is the
outcome of the experiment.
c. The independent variable is the
result of the experiment while the
dependent variable is the effect of
the independent variable.

outcome of the experiment while
the dependent variable is the one
manipulated.
For numbers 3-5.
Four groups of rats are first massed and
then fed identical diets except for the
amount of vitamin A they receive. Each
group gets a different amount. After 3
weeks on the diet, the rats’ masses are
measured again to see if there has been a
decrease.
3. Given the research scenario above,
what is the independent variable?
a. Amount of vitamin A
b. Number of rats
c. Mass of the rats
d. Number of weeks
4. What is the dependent variable?
a. Amount of vitamin A
b. Number of rats
c. Mass of the rats
d. Number of weeks
5. What could be the control variable in
the study?
a. Amount of vitamin B used.
b. Kind of rats used in the study
c. Weight of the rats
d. All of these
For numbers 6-7
The higher the temperature of the air in the
oven, the faster a cake will bake.
6. Which of the following is the dependent
variable?
a. Temperature of air c. Taste of cake
b. Oven used d. Speed
7. The type of baking pan used is what
type of variable?
a. Moderator c. Controlled
b. Intervening d. Extraneous
8. Why is extraneous variable usually
controlled?
a. Because it shows how the
relationship of interest changes
under different conditions.
b. Because it disappears when the
independent variable is introduced.
c. Because it can give an alternative
result
d. Because it cannot affect the result
9. Which of the following questions is an 14. Which of the following is a testable
