Mrs. Singh asked her class to pair up and investigate anything in the Unit 1 & 2 Biology course, then present their results to the class to teach them the concept they investigated. Fabiano and Axel did an experiment in their class looking at how quickly a substance can move through different sized agar blocks. They used phenolphthalein-rich agar, which is an indicator that changes colour from pink to clear when levels of acidity change, and sodium hydroxide solution, which has a low acidity level to show the movement of solution.They used three agar blocks, a 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm cube, a 2 cm × 2 cm × 2 cm cube, and a 3 cm × 3 cm × 3 cm cube.State the independent variable and the dependent variable in this experiment.

Solution

The independent variable in this experiment is the size of the agar blocks. This is what Fabiano and Axel are deliberately changing in the experiment.

The dependent variable is the speed at which the substance (sodium hydroxide solution) moves through the agar blocks. This is what they are measuring and what is affected by the change in the independent variable.
