Controlled variable - CORRECT ANSWER: The sample where everything is kept the exact same throughout the experiment; used to compare the experimental data to to determine the change or effect the tested variable had.

controlled variable - CORRECT ANSWER: The variable that you keep the same (no change) 1 / 3

controlled variables - CORRECT ANSWER: part of an experiment that should stay the same

data - CORRECT ANSWER: Evidence; information gathered from observations
