A student wants to shorten the ripening time for tomatoes. He predicts that the more water the seedlings receive, the faster the tomatoes will ripen. He grows 20 tomato plants in a garden with full sunlight that has dry soil and 20 tomato plants in the same garden where there is more moisture in the soil. He records the time it takes for fruit to develop and ripen on the plants in each location. What is the test variable (independent variable) in this experiment?

Moisture

Explanation:

The independent variable, in this case, would be the moisture levels of the soils.

The independent variable is the variable being tested. It is the only variable that is altered in the course of an experiment and which has a direct effect on the actual variable that is the main aim of the experiment. All other variables are kept constant while the independent variable is manipulated.

The tomato plants in the two groups were under the same conditions except that a group had more moisture in the soil. Hence, the independent variable is the moisture.
