In an experiment, the independent variable is the element that is changed or controlled by the researcher to test its effects on the dependent variable.
Based on the options provided for Investigation #2, the most likely independent variable would be:
(A) the type of wire
This option indicates that different types of wire are being tested to see how they affect the outcome of the investigation, such as electrical resistance or magnetic field strength. The other options (number of coils, size of the battery, and strength of the magnet) are also variables that could be manipulated, but without specific additional context, "the type of wire" stands out as a clear independent variable.
