  1. Types of Variables in a Scientific Experiment Cornell Notes Page 35

  2. Independent Variable (IV) Dependent Variable (DV) The “Cause” Variable being tested “I change” The “Effect” Variable being measured “depends” on independent variable

  3. Constants/ Controlled Variables ( C ) Any variable that is kept the same (constant) or is controlled so that it does not alter the results of the experiment.
