Pinky's science fair project in junior high focused on an observation that the crickets outside her window chirped less frequently when the temperature was colder.

See the answer below

Explanation:

The complete question: Pinky's science fair project in junior high focused on an observation that the crickets outside her window chirped less frequently when the temperature was colder. Consider if data was collected consisting of the average number of cricket chirps  at different temperatures in her backyard. What's the independent variable?

The independent variable would be the temperature.

Independent variables are variables that produce effects on another variable while remaining unaffected themselves. They can be manipulated in the course of a research in order to measure the kind of effects they exert on other variables - the dependent variables to be specific. The dependent variables are the actual variables needed to test the hypothesis of a research.

In this case, a variation in temperature was observed to have an effect on the chirping frequency of crickets. Hence, the independent variable would be the temperature.  

slitherio is the original. its the best friend of all middle schoolers. the man you can count any time you have some free time. slitherio is the guy you hang with while you're in the computer lab suppose to be doing "research or whatever". slitherio isn't just a game but a friend.

wormaxio is just a fake trying to squeeze its way into the friend group. trying to pretend its cool and your best pal but how long has it really been there for you, really. it only wants you as friend to boost its social status. wormaxio is just annoying fake pleb. no offense

you and have a wonderful day

i believe it would cause an increase of percipitation, though i could be wrong. so i would say b is the answer.
