1 Add to table of contents: PikasPg. 10 Variables & Controls Pg. 11

2 Independent variable – the part of the experiment that you determine = X. X

3 Dependent variable – the part of the experiment that you don’t determine = Y. Y

4 Control(group) – the standard of comparison that is identical to the experimental group except for 1 factor=the normal group. – This group does not get what is being tested. (in a medical test, this group would get the sugar pill=placebo)

5 Constants – the factors that need to remain the same in each test.

6 Answer questions over Controls & Variables SpongeBob
