Question

The number of puddles increases as

the amount of rain increases.

Identify the relationship.

A. number of puddles depends on amount of rain

B. amount of rain depends on number of puddles

Answer 1

The relationship is A. "number of puddles depends on amount of rain".

This means that the number of puddles varies depending on the amount of rain that falls. As the amount of rain increases, the number of puddles also increases. Therefore, the number of puddles is not causing or influencing the amount of rain, but rather it is being affected by it.
