Yesl Your answers are rightl
Thank you
You are very welcome.
Yes, you are correct. Correlations show the relationship between two things, but they do not indicate causation. A correlation simply means that when one variable changes, the other tends to change as well. It does not imply that one variable caused the change in the other.
For experiments, researchers change a condition called the independent variable so that they can observe the effects on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the one that is being measured or observed to see how it is affected by the changes in the independent variable. Therefore, the correct answer is "Independent variable".
Regarding the study involving gathering data from participants of different ages to note similarities and differences concerning age groups, the correct answer is "cross-sectional study". A cross-sectional study involves collecting data from different age groups at the same time, allowing researchers to observe and compare the differences and similarities between the groups.
