Dependent variable.

Not Independent variable because it is the variable that makes the change occur. 

Not Control variable because it remains constant - the same. It is controlled.

Dependent Variable. 
Independent variable is the variable that you change purposefully, while the dependent variable is the variable  that changes because you changed the first variable.
