What is an independent variable?

• What a scientist changes in an experiment to test their hypothesis

• What scientist measure to see if it responded to a change

• What happens when you do an experiment

• What you keep the same throughout all experimental groups

(b) Non-testable Hypothesis

• If a paper airplane is made larger, then it will fly a longer distance.

• If sugar dissolves faster, then it will taste better.

• If paper airplanes are made larger, then they will be more fun to throw.

• If the temperature of water is higher, then sugar will dissolve faster.
