Question

christopher states the hypothesis that a mouses body temperature decreases as the air temperature around the mouse decreases. he wants to design an experiment to test his hypothesis. what should the dependent (outcome) variable be in this experiment? the mouses body temperature the amount of time for the experiment the air temperature the mass of the mouse

Explanation:

A dependent variable is what is being measured and affected during an experiment. Here, the hypothesis is about how a mouse's body - temperature changes with air - temperature. So, the mouse's body temperature is what is being measured as it is expected to be affected by the air temperature.

Answer:

the mouse's body temperature
