Question
identify the independent variable: does the amount of water a bean plant receives affect the height of the bean plant? the amount of water provided daily; the amount of sunlight theyre exposed to daily; the bean seed; how tall they grow by the end of the experiment
The independent variable is the one that is manipulated or changed to observe its effect on another variable (dependent variable). In the question, we are testing how the amount of water affects the bean plant's height. So the variable we control (amount of water) is the independent variable. The other options: sunlight is not the focus here, the bean seed is a constant (same seeds), and the height is the dependent variable.
