Constants (“controlled variables”) and a control are easily confused by students! How would you explain the difference between the two words?

Please find the explained difference below

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, the CONTROLLED VARIABLE, also known as CONSTANT, is the the variable that is kept unchanged by the experimenter throughout the course of the experiment. The constants are not part of the actual experiment but altering them can influence its outcome.

A control group is one of the two groups in an experiment (the other being experimental group) that doesn't receive the variable being manipulated (independent variable). The control group is the same as the experimental group except that the independent variable is unchanged in the control group. It is used to make a comparison with the experimental group.

For example, in an experiment to test the effect of sunlight on plant growth. Some plants were exposed to sunlight while some were placed in the dark. The CONTROL group of this experiment are the plants placed in the dark (no light). They didn't receive any treatment.

The constants of this experiment can be same amount of water, same type of plants used etc. This is done in order not to affect the outcome of the experiment.
