The variable that is changed by the experimenter is called:
Dependent variable
Independent variable
Control group
the Thinky part
Scientists use ___ to test a hypothesis.

Lot of arguing
A biologist is testing the effect of an antibiotic on the growth of a colony of bacteria, using 5 petri dishes. One petri dish is not treated with the antibiotic, so it is called the:
Control group
Experimental group
Independent variable
Testing group
In an experiment, a scientist has multiple plants. Each plant is treated with a different fertilizer, except one group that is left alone. Each plant is the same species and roughly the same age. They are stored in the same conditions. The researcher measures each plant to see how much they grow over 2 weeks.
What is the independent variable?
The plant growth
The different groups
The type of fertilizer applied
The group that is not fertilized.

They are stored in the same conditions. The researcher measures each plant to see how much they grow over 2 weeks.
Which is a constant in the experiment?
The fertilizers
The different groups of plants
The amount of plant growth
The plants are all the same species
