Joe designs an experiment to test his idea that exercise increases muscle. Joe exercises using weights three days each week. At the end of each week, Joe measures and records the size of his biceps (arm muscles). The first week Joe exercised for 30 minutes. The second week he exercised for 45 minutes. The third week his workouts lasted one hour each.

amount of muscle
amount of weight lifted
amount of time he exercised
type of exercise
