Answer is: density doesn't affect on weigh.
Density <span>of a substance is its </span>mass<span> per unit </span>volume, <span>density is defined as mass divided by volume (d = m/V).
</span>Weight is force<span> on the object due to </span>gravity. Weight is <span>product of the </span>mass<span> of substance and the magnitude of the local </span>gravitational acceleration (<span>W = <span>mg). Feather can have larger mass and also weight.</span></span>

<span>How iron can be more dense as a feather yet more feathers can weigh more is because density and weight are two completely different things. No matter how many feathers there are it's density never changes, it's weight is able to change but not density. Therefore the density of iron is higher no matter what but may weigh less than a group of feathers.</span>

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Temperature of the water

Explanation:

In every study, there must be independent and dependent variables. An independent variable is the variable that is changed in order to obtain a response. In this case, the temperature of the water is being changed, the response in this experiment is the respiration rate of the goldfish.

Thus the respiration rate of the goldfish is the dependent variable because it is controlled by the temperature of the water and changes accordingly.

Summarily, the independent variable is the temperature of the water while the dependent variable is the respiration rate of the goldfish.
