Read the paragraph. Then answer the question below.  A student decided to set up an experiment to see if cats preferred skim milk, 2% milk, or whole milk. She put out a cup of each type of milk for 5 kittens and then measured how much the kittens drank of each type of milk over the course of a day. This was repeated each day for a week. Each type of milk was served at the same temperature and in the same size container. The kittens drank 50% more of the whole milk than the other types. The student discovered that the cats liked the whole milk more than the other types of milk. What is the independent variable?
