distilled water. While the four disks were soaking in their respective solutions, she streaked a sterile nutrient agar dish with a culture of E. coli bacteria. Then, she placed each disk carefully onto the nutrient agar dish, placed the lid on the dish, taped it shut, and incubated the dish at 37°C for several days. The diagram shows how the nutrient agar dish looked on Day 1 and Day 4. The shaded portion of the plate on day 4 indicates the bacterial growth. What is the control in the experiment? A. Disk soaked in distilled water B. Disk soaked in disinfectant 3 C. Disk soaked in disinfectant 1 D. Disk soaked in disinfectant 2

The correct answer is letter A. The disk soaked in distilled water is the controlled variable because it is the only differential factor from all of the other variables which are all disinfectants. Controlled variables are elements that are not changed throughout the experiment. When something is unchanged it is better for scientists to analyze the relationships of other variables better.
