what is a dependant variable

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The dependent variable is the variable that depends on the manipulated variable. Like if you wanted to see if water temperature affected how fast food coloring mixes with water. The independent variable would be the manipulated variable, the temperature of the water. The dependent variable would be the time it took for the coloring to mix completely with the water. Do you understand or do I need to explain it better?
