Answer: Group 1 is the dependent variable, and group 2 is the independent

Step-by-step explanation: The dependent variable is the variable that is being measured or tested in an experiment. So, Group 1 would be the dependent variable, because as it says the the group 1 plants were spoken to and hand watered as in they changed the outcome of the experiment.
