rds to two groups of participants at his university. He puts the names of all the participants in a hat. The first 20 names he assigns to Group A and the last 20 he assigns to Group B.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The independent variable can be defined as the set of value or factor that is being changed ion the experiment.

Here, the experiment is to check the effect of emotion on memory. The list of words were different in the two sets of words that was given to two set of people.

One group was given emotional words and the other group was given neutral words. The conclusion was the group that were given emotional words remember more words as compared to the group given neutral words.

Hence, the independent variable is number of emotional or neutral word lists.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

If he/she is obese there probably eating to much. Meaning their nutrition isn't very good.  Stunted growth, or if someone has tall parents, but their short. Their nutrition might be to low, or their mal-nourished. (here's an example of stunted growth. I have celiac disease [meaning I'm gluten free] but I have had so much wheat that my body was responding in a way where I wasn't getting enough nutrition, therefore making me short.). If someone is fit, they probably have a good nutrition intake. If someone is about average height, their probably eating healthy.
