Addiction is a condition of compulsive drug seeking and use, even with negative consequences is a <u>true</u> statement.
Explanation:
Addiction to drugs is a chronic and a relapsing condition or disorder which results in compulsory drug seeking behavior and its continuous use despite knowing about or having negative consequences it can cause to the brain and the body systems.
This is both a medical and a mental illness due to repeatedly misusing drugs or other substances and a severe form of a spectrum of substance abuse disorders.
Addiction is classified under substance use disorder and is categorized as mild, moderate or severe according to the symptoms. The symptoms or the negative consequences of addiction are generally grouped as impaired control, risky use, social impairment, pharmacological criteria for drug tolerance or withdrawal.

Explanation:
In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in order to bring about a measurable outcome.
In this case, an experiment is carried out to test the hypothesis that "exercise will affect the number of times a person can squeeze a clothespin in a certain amount of time". The experiment contained two groups (one group sits quietly before squeezing a clothespin as many times as possible and the other does 25 JUMPING JACKS before squeezing a clothespin as many times as possible).
The independent variable is the EXERCISE (jumping jacks) that was changed for each group in the experiment.
