How does the distance from this eye chart affect the number of letters visible on a line? What factor of the experiment is the eye chart? Control Group, Control Variable, Independent variable, or Dependent variable

This question is asking to identify the variable in the experimental statement.

The eye chart is the CONTROL VARIABLE

Explanation:

An experiment consists of several variables to look out for in order to achieve any significant result. These variables are independent variables, dependent variables and control variables. Although independent and dependent variables are the major experimental variables, but control variables are also important.

A control variable is the variable that remains constant or unchanged throughout the experiment. Any change to the control variable will affect the dependent and independent variables. In this question, the eye chart is the CONTROL VARIABLE because it remains constant or unchanged. The same eye chart is used for the experiment.

N.B: The distance to the eye chart is the independent variable while the number of letters visible on the line is the dependent variable. Hence, changing the eye chart (control variable) will affect the distance and the number of letters visible.
