    Answer: Room lighting is the independent variable (light intensity)

    Explanation:

    An independent variable is one that can stand on it's own. It does not rely on the other variable. It cannot be altered by the other variable you want to measure. In this case, you are trying to see if the independent variable which is the light intensity can cause some obvious changes in the dependent variable.
