What is the following scenario: the control, the independent variable, the dependent variable.?

Tricia cat was being really picky on her food choice. In order to decide her cat's perference, tricia tested 3 cat foods to see which one she ate more of.


Control;


indepenent:


depenent:|||a control is something that never changes, and the dependent variable depends on the independent variable. ( For example on a graph the independent variable can be time and the depends variable can be algae growth. The algae growth depends on the time its been allowed to grow.)





I would say that the cat food is the independent variable because the amount the cat eats depends on the food type.
