Dependent variable represent the result from the varied input. The value is directed related to independent variable.

Independent variable are variable in an experiment that is been changed or manipulated. They can a stand alone but are been depended upon by dependents variable.

The temperature ranges is the independent variable because it can stand on its own, they are been manipulated based on the different range.

Chimps are the dependent variable whose behaviour is based on temperature changes.
