Answer:

The Experimental Variable it is any factor that can be manipulated, controlled for, or measured in an experiment. The control variable is the variable that is not changed and kept the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are testing how the amount of sunlight helps or damages the growth of a grass. Your control variables are going to be the container, type of dirt, typr of plant, and the amount of water/nutrients. The Experimental variable is going to be the plants growth, such as the color and higth differenc between each plant.
