Dependent Variable: The dependent variable is the outcome or result being measured or observed in an experiment, which may change depending on variations in the independent variable.
Control Group: A control group refers to a group of subjects or participants in an experiment who do not receive any treatment or exposure to the independent variable, serving as a baseline for comparison with experimental groups.
Hypothesis: A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon based on observations and prior knowledge, often stating how changes in one factor (the independent variable) will affect another factor (the dependent variable).
