My experiment is based on whether certain mice choose either cheddar cheese or bananas
(mices' most favorable things to eat). The mice that are going to be included in this experiment
are the deer mouse, house mouse, wood mouse, and the golden mouse. Each mouse will be
placed into the same maze where the cheese and the banana will be placed on different sides
and the way the data will be
collected is by direct observation.

What is the dependent variable and the independent variable?
