Claribel wants to know if different amounts of water affect a plant growing. She uses 50ml, 100ml, and 150ml to investigate. What would be her dependent variable?​

Answer:

plant growth

Step-by-step explanation:

The independent variable is the amount of water used, because the independent variable is what you change.

The dependent variable is what is measured, in this case plant growth.

Hopefully everything else in this experiment (location, temperature, food, soil, type of plant, etc) is the same. (Your constants). Otherwise, this is a flawed experiment.
