| 1. For this science fair project, the independent variable is whether the hamsters were exposed to Mozart's music or not. The dependent variable was the time taken for the hamster to complete the maze. This as determined using a stopwatch. The constants (control variables) were the recordings of the music pieces used, the size and type of maze, how hungry the hamsters were, and the type of food used. 2.
