Answer:

dependent

Explanation:

This is a dependent event. There is one less marble in the bag to choose from

Say there was 1 red marble and 4 blue marble. You drew the red marble on the first pick, now you cannot get a red marble on your second pick.

If you drew a blue marble on the first pick you could get a red marble on the second pick.

So what happens on the first pick affects the second pick
