The parts of the experiments that would be used to check temperature to know if this antibiotic works are:

  • The independent variable is the new antibiotic,
  • The dependent variable is the temperature of the cattle.
  • Controlled variable is the quantity of antibiotics they are to receive.
  • The control group is the group of cattle i own that are not being treated with antibiotics.
  • The experimental group is the cattle that are receiving the antibiotics.

The independent variable is the new antibiotic that is going to be used to treat this fever in the cattle.

The dependent variable is the temperature of the cattle. The temperature of the cattle depends on the effectiveness of the antibiotic

The controlled variable is the quantity of antibiotic that the cattle is to receive.

The control group are those cattle that I own that will not be receiving this drug.

The experimental group are the group of cattle that are going to take the antibiotics.
