Example of Variables in Scientific Experiments

If a scientist conducts an experiment to test the theory that a vitamin could extend a person’s life-expectancy, then:

• The independent variable is the amount of vitamin that is given to the subjects within the experiment. This is controlled by the experimenting scientist. 

• The dependent variable, or the variable being affected by the independent variable, is life span. 

What is a fair test???
We will be anylising results on Thursday.
