Sally is doing an experiment on how butterfly's react to light. she has 3 groups of butterfly's. the first group is exposed to 10 seconds of light. the second group is exposed to 20 seconds of light. the third group was exposed to no light. the results showed that the first group moved more quickly toward the light while the second group did not move as quickly. what is the independent and dependent variable?
independent: the amount of time the light was shown dependent: the quickness they moved toward the light
