These two correlate with each other. I need help please, thank you. **Part 1:****Research Question:** Are people more likely to help another based on the person in need's attractiveness? To test this, a researcher used identical twins and made one of them more attractive and one less attractive with theater make-up. Research subjects were randomly assigned to either a condition with the "attractive" twin dropping papers or the "unattractive" twin dropping papers. The researcher measured each subject's helpfulness on a scale of 1-15 based on the number of papers picked up. In this research question, we are asked to identify the independent and dependent variables. The options provided are:- Number of papers, attractiveness- Attractiveness, helpfulness- Helpfulness, number of papers- Helpfulness, attractivenessEach option suggests a different pairing of independent and dependent variables for the research context. The role of the independent variable is to be the factor that is manipulated or controlled to observe its effect on the dependent variable, which is the outcome being measured or tested. The correct choice will designate an independent variable and a dependent variable accurately for the specified research question.

Introduction: Independent variable: In a study, the variable that influences some other variables in the study, and may be considered as a cause of the occurrence of the other variable, without itself been influenced, is called the independent variable. Dependent variable: In a study, the variable that is influenced or affected by some other variables in the study, and may be expressed as a function of those other variables, is called the dependent variable.Explanation: In this research, the researcher wants to know whether a person's attractiveness influences their chances of being helped when in need. In other words, the researcher wants to know if the level of attractiveness of a person in need is a factor in determining how much they will be helped when in need. Clearly, the attractiveness of the person in need is the variable that influences the other variable- the helpfulness of another person towards them. Hence, the independent variable is attractiveness. How much a person is helped is believed to be influenced by how attractive they are. Helpfulness is measured by the number of papers picked up by the subject, when the person in need drops some papers. The number of papers picked up, in itself, is not the variable of interest; rather, it is simply used to measure the helpfulness. Hence, the dependent variable is helpfulness. Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
