Albert, a student researcher, varies the amount of food given to rats in an experiment to measure the effect on their learning behavior. In albert's study, the amount of food given is the independent variable.
An independent variable is under the control of the experimenter. Independent variable does not depend on the other variables involved in the experiment. Since the amount of food is varied, it is not depending on other variables like size of mice, weight, etc.

Answer:
The correct answer is - option D. lytic cycle.
Explanation:
The lytic cycle is one of the two viral reproduction cycle. Generally, it is the major reproduction cycle. In this cycle reproduction of the viruses takes place inside the host cell and produce more viruses. In the production of the more viruses the host cell and it''s destruction takes place in the end. The 5 steps that takes place are as follows:
1- attachment - viruses attach to the cell.
2-penetration- only nucleic acid or genetic material is injected into the host cell through the hole made by the tail fibers and enzymes.
3- synthesis - replication of viral nucleic acid and protein and envelope.
4- assembly - assembling of the new viruses formed.
5- release.
Thus, the correct answer is - option D.
