What is the independent variable, dependent variable, and control group?

I need to know what these are. It will be nice if you post and example.What is the independent variable, dependent variable, and control group?
There are literally hundreds of web sites that already contain clear definitions and examples of these common scientific terms. Please use the WEB SEARCH at the very top of the window or go to google. You'll find reliable resources there...and it's probably where you should have started in the first place. Your science book would also be an ideal place to look...wouldn't it???What is the independent variable, dependent variable, and control group?
The independent variable is the thing that you are changing. the dependent variable is a result of that change. the control is not changed at all.
