A Scientist wants to test the effect of water temperature on the success of developing frog embryos. The scientist monitors developing
embryos in different water temperatures and counts the number of embryos that mature into tadpoles.

Which variable is the independent variable?

A. Number of frog embryos

B. Species of frog

C. Number of tadpoles

D. Water temperature

A scientist wants to test the effect of water temperature on the success of developing frog embryos. The scientist monitors developing embryos in different water temperatures and counts the number of embryos that mature into tadpoles.

The water temperature is the independent variable because that is what the scientist is testing / changing.

Hopefully this helps!

Using variable concepts, it is found that the independent variable is given by:

D. Water temperature

What is the relation between a function and the dependent and independent variables?

A function has the following format: y = f(x).

In which each value of y is a function of one value of x, and thus, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.

That is, the input of the function is the independent variable and the output is the dependent variable.

In this problem, the input is the water temperature, hence option D is correct.
