independent variable

In science, it is the variable that you intentionally change.

In an experiment, Lyndsey has three sunflower plants. They are all given the same amount of sunlight; however, she gives one drop of water to one plant, two drops to another, and no water to the third. Lyndsey's independent variable is the amount of water.
