| Scientific method( fifth step) | Draw conclusions |
| Control | A standard for comparison or the group that you are going to do nothing to |
| Independent variable | The factor adjusted by the experimenter or hat is being changed |
| Dependent variable | The factor whose value is dependent on the independent variable or what changes only with the independent variable |
