Answer: Depends on the experiment.
Step-by-step explanation:
For any experiment, the fact remains that the independent variable always affects the measurement of the dependent variable. The independent variable is the factor in the experiment that you are changing. The dependent variable is, more often than not, the result of the change. Compare the relation between the two sets of data - probably graph it if it helps. The control data is the set of data gathered from the experiment where all the factors are not changed and are standardized. This is, in essence, the "original" data. Compare the changed data to this data. Hope it helped!
