A teacher cut an apple into three wedges of the same size.

She dipped one wedge in lemon juice, dipped another in
water, and left one alone. Then she left the wedges on a
paper towel on her desk. After 1 hour, only the wedge that
had been dipped in lemon juice was still yellow. The other
two wedges had turned brown.
What is the responding variable in this experiment?

I am not entirely sure what you mean by "responding variable" but I'm going to guess it was the vinegar since it has been used as a perservative for years.

Hope that helps in some way.
