Think back to the bean plant experiment you read

about earlier. The student's hypothesis stated, "If

bean plants are grown in green light, they will

grow taller, because bean plants are green."

Which of the following variables is the dependent

variable?

o the height of the bean plant

the type of light the bean plant receives -

green or natural sunlight

The correct answer will be option - the height of the bean plant

Explanation:

A scientific experiment performed to test the hypothesis must contain three types of variables which are: dependent, independent and the constant variable.

The dependent variable is the variable which has to be tested and is dependent or directly influenced by the independent variable which in the given question is the height of the plants influenced by the amount of light.

Thus, the height of the bean plant is the correct answer.

The height of the bean plant.

The dependent variable is the affect of changing something directly (the independent variable)
