Fair Testing
Fill out the following table to help you explain the Growing in the dark: Plants and light experiment
Aim - what are you trying to find out?
|
Dependent Variable
|
Hypothesis - what do you think your results will be?
|
a variable (often denoted by y ) whose value depends on that of another.
|
Independent Variable - what variable will you change?
|
a variable (often denoted by x ) whose variation does not depend on that of another.
|
Dependent Variable - what variable will you measure?
|
A Dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment and what it is affected during the experiment. The Dependent variable responds to the Independent
|
Controlled Variable - what variables will you keep the same?
|
Use the same type of candle for every test Wind ---- make sure there is none

|
Independent Variable - what variable will you change?
|
The things that are changing in an experiment are called variables. A variable is any factor, trait, or condition that can exist in differing amounts or types. An experiment usually has three kinds of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled.
|
Dependent Variable - what variable will you measure?
|
A Dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment and what it is affected during the experiment. The Dependent variable responds to the Independent
|
Controlled Variable - what variables will you keep the same?
|
Use the same type of candle for every test Wind ---- make sure there is none
