Question

legend:
answer the following questions based on the graph above you just completed.

1. what is the independent variable? a and b plant
2. why is this the independent variable? it is independent because the depth mades relies on the a and b
3. what is the dependent variable? depth in meter
4. why is this the dependent variable? it is dependent because it needs support from the a and b
5. use one or more complete sentences to state a conclusion about the data in graph #1.

Explanation:

1. The independent variable is what is being manipulated or changed. Here, "A and B Plant" seems to be the factor being varied.
2. It is independent as the depth (dependent variable) is likely being measured in response to the type of plant.
3. The dependent variable is the outcome that depends on the independent variable, so depth in meters is correct as it varies with the plant type.
4. It depends on the plant type (A and B Plant) as stated.
5. Without seeing the graph, a general conclusion could be: The depth in meters varies depending on whether it is Plant A or Plant B, indicating that the type of plant has an impact on the measured depth.

Answer:

1. A and B Plant
2. The depth measurements rely on the plant type.
3. Depth in meters
4. It needs support (is influenced) from the A and B Plant.
5. The depth in meters varies depending on the type of plant (A or B), suggesting the plant - type affects the measured depth.
