Which are the dependant in dependant and controlled variables?

i have to soak an egg in vinegar for two days, then two days in water. and one day in orange juice food colored water and salt water.Which are the dependant in dependant and controlled variables?
start with your Hypothesis:


If I soak an egg in such in such liquid then This is going to happen.


The liquid is your independent variable, what the out come is is you dependent variable and your control could be the temperature, amount of liquid etc... It is what you control in the experiment.Which are the dependant in dependant and controlled variables?
The indepentant is how long you soak it for. The dependant is what happens to it, and the controlled is what you soak it in
An independent variable is one that is not affected by other conditions, in your case, time. It keeps moving regardless of whatever else happens in the experiment.





A dependent variable is one that is affected by, or dependent on, the other variables. In your case, these would be what happens to the egg.





A controlled variable is one that you control such as the substance you soak the egg in.





:)
the dependent is, of coarse, the egg because it depends on the water.





the independent variable is the water, orange juice, vineger, etc.





and the controlled variable is the two days.
independant is what you soak it in and for how long, and idk the dependant because you didnt tell what you were trying to find out or the ';question'; and dependant is also impossible because of this sorry
controlled variables in an experiment are ones that you can control, like soil type, amount of water you add, number of plants. just an example.
the independent variable is the variable you change on purpose. the dependant is the the effect of the independent. and the controlled variable is the variable that stays the same. so if you planted plants with different fertilizers the fertilizer would be the dependant variable and the independant would be how fast the plant grows. the controlled variable would be the plant with no fertilizer so you can use it for comparison.
