1. If the amount of water increases, then the height of the plant will increase. This is an

example of

A hypothesis

Page 2: 1. If the amount of water increases, then the height of the plant will increase. This is an example of A hypothesis

2. The variable that is changed (manipulated) in an experiment

Independent variable

Page 3: 1. If the amount of water increases, then the height of the plant will increase. This is an example of A hypothesis

3. The variable changes (responds) as a result of a change in the independent variable

Dependent variable
