Question

Bart believes that mice given special food will become extra strong. He decides to perform this experiment by giving 10 mice in a special food for 14 days. He compared these 10 mice to another 10 mice that had normal food for 14 days. His test consisted of a heavy block of wood that blocked the mouse from getting treats. He found that 8 out of 10 of the mice given special food were able to push the block away. 7 out of 10 of the mice gievn normal food were able to do the same.
Identify the-

1. Control Group

2. Independent Variable

3. Dependent Variable

4. What should Bart's conclusion be?

5. How could Bart's experiment be improved?

Answer 1

Control Group- Mice given normal food

Independent Variable- (sorry I don't know this one)

Dependent Variable- How much food is given 

4. The special food doesn't have much of a difference on the mice considering only one more on special could move the block.

5. Make sure all mice are eating the same amount of food. Or even only try it with two mice. 

Hope this helped!
