ANS: E, G
A dependent variable is the response behavior, or outcome that the researcher wants to predict or explain. An independent variable is a stimulus or activity that is manipulated or varied by the researcher to create an effect on the dependent variable. In this example, whether the bacon ends up moister and more flavorful is the dependent variable and method of cooking is the independent variable.
