Question:

What is the Independent Variable

2. What is the Dependent Variable

3. What is the Potential Confounding Variable

Answer:

1.  5 glasses of Milk

2.  Growth.

3.  5 glasses of Orange Juice

Explanation:

The Independent variable is a term in a research study, which describes a variable whose variation does not hinge on another variable. Hence, in this case, the independent variable is 5 glasses of Milk

The dependent variable on the other hand is a form of the variable under test and assessed in an experiment. This form of the variable depends on the independent variable. Hence, in this case, the Dependent Variable is Growth

While Potential Confounding Variable is a form of a variable that has an external impact that changes the outcome of a dependent and independent variable. Here, the potential confounding variable is 5 glasses of Orange Juice.
