What is an Independent Variable in a scientific experiment?

• The part of the experiment that is kept the same

• The part of the experiment that is observed or measured

• The part of the experiment that the scientist intentionally changes to see if there will be a result

• An untested or normal group that is used for comparison

What are Constant Variables in a scientific experiment?

• The factors that the scientist changes during the experiment

• The factors that are observed or measured during the experiment

• The factors that are kept the same to ensure a fair test

• The group that is used for comparison under normal conditions
