Answer:

The answer is d.

Explanation:

The dependent variable in a research is the one subjected to changes, and seeks to find out the cause-effect relationship on another variable. In this example, the amount of time the rats have spent without food is variable. This is done in order to test its influence on the rats' performance at running the maze.
