What *one* thing do you change between trials? That's your independent variable.
What changes as a result? That's your dependent variable.
What things are kept the same in each trial? Those are the constants.

Have you read this? https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... bles.shtml Take a look at our resource and see if that helps explain it.
