(1 point) the temperature of the room the amount of water the height of the plants the amount of sunlight
Brief Explanations
In an experiment, the responding variable (dependent variable) is what is being measured or observed as a result of changes in the independent variable. Here, Alex is testing how different amounts of water (independent variable) affect plant growth. The height of the plants is what she measures to see the effect of water amount. The temperature and sunlight are controlled variables (kept constant), and the amount of water is the independent variable (the one she changes).
