Extraneous

An <em>extraneous variable</em> is a variable in an experiment that you are not intentionally studying. These variables usually provide undesired affects on the experiment.

In this example, the independent variable is whether a sentence is humorous or not, and the dependent variable is the memory performance score. However, because the humorous sentences are only given to males, and the non-humorous sentences are only given to females, gender becomes an extraneous variable as you are not intentionally testing gender's relation to the dependent variable, but it is still affecting the experiment.

3. C. British control of the seas

Following the ward of 1812,  The British government ordered a group of  powerful Royal Navy to create a blockade on  American ports.
