Answer 2

Independent, Dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given lab procedure, the number of half-life cycles or the time in which the number of nuclei in radio-active substance turns into its half would be characterized as the 'independent' variable as it directly affects the dependent variable i.e. 'the number(or fraction) of Lincolnium nuclei remaining at that time.' The number of nuclei would be the dependent variable as it bears the change or effect of a change in the independent variable(half-life cycle).
