Answer 2

The value of a dependent variable changes in response to other changes in a scientific experiment.

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

In the course of going through a scientific experiment, we encounter two types of variables in the calculations,

• An independent variable
• The dependent variable

An independent variable doesn’t change in terms of values throughout the experiment and remains constant respective to all the changes whereas dependent variables are affected by the changes in the values of other variables or the modes of experiment.

The independent variable is termed as the presumed cause and the dependent variable is termed as the presumed effect. The subject of experiment is to find out the exact or relevant values of the dependent variables that can be a person, place, thing or a phenomenon.
