Independent variable – is the variable that is intentionally changed in the experiment, such as the protein in the mouse experiment.There are levels of the independent variable.
Dependent variable – is the variable that responds to the changes in the independent variable. For example, the amount of growth seen in the mice.

Control – is the standard against which the researcher compares the results from each treatment group. In this case the normal level of protein is the control.
Repeated Trials – are the number of times the experiment is repeated to determine how the independent variable affected the results. For example, 100 mice are used for each treatment, so there are 100 trials.

Constants – are the things that are kept the same each time one of the trials in the experiment is repeated. The size and controlled diet of the mice prior to testing.Test one independent variable at a time.As many outside factors as possible should be kept constant in an experiment so the researcher can be sure that any changes that occur do so because of the independent variable.

Experimental DesignTitle:Introduction:Purpose: Explain why is this research important.Hypothesis: Higher protein level in diet will allow mice to grow larger.Background research:Independent Variable (changed variable),(Include Units)• Levels of the (IV) 18% casein, normal protein diet, 9%
casein, low protein diet.e.g. concentration of chemical.
• Number of Trials: Ten or moreDependent Variable (DV)(responding variable) e.g. Group A: 25 grams,
27.5 grams, etc.Group B: 32 grams, 31.3 grams, etc.
Constants: Try to identify at least ten.

Materials list:Procedures: step-by-step instructions for completing and
repeating the experiment.Results: Data Tables and GraphsDiscrete variable results: e.g. dog breeds; makes of cars.
(Use a Bar or Column Graph)
Continuous variable results: e.g. temperature, length, and mass. (Use a Line Graph)
Error: Describe the error mathematically. Percent error works well. (experimental-expected)/expected = percent error
Conclusions: Summarize, and explain cause and effect.

High Power Objective lens = 40XLow Power Objective Lens = 10X
High Power Field of view = Diameter of the Low Power field of view ÷ (HP ÷ LP)
(HP) ÷ (LP) ------ 40X ÷ 10X = 4
2000µ ÷ 4 = 500µ
