    The document defines the independent variable as the variable that is changed during an investigation and the dependent variable as the variable that is measured in response to changes in the independent variable. It then provides 6 examples of investigations and asks the reader to identify the independent and dependent variables in each. The independent variables are the intensity of light, height of a person, brand of crisps, height a ball bounces, temperature, and color of flower. The dependent variables are the surface area of leaves, how fast a person can run, amount of energy stored, how much the ball bounces, rate of reaction, and number of bees attracted.

    Identifying Variables

    The independent variable is the variable that you change or select the values for.
    The dependent variable is the variable that is measured for each change of the independent
    variable.

    Identify the independent variable and the dependent variable in each of the following
    investigations.

    1. A student investigated how the intensity of light affects the surface area of leaves on a tree.

    independent variable dependent variable


     

    2. A student investigated whether the height of a person affects how fast they can run.

    independent variable dependent variable


     

    3. A student investigated the amount of energy stored in different brands of crisps.

    independent variable dependent variable


     

    4. A student investigated whether the height a ball bounces depends on the ball’s
    circumference.

    independent variable dependent variable


     

    5. A student investigated how the rate of a reaction was affected by temperature.
