g Researchers studied 208 infants whose brains were temporarily deprived of oxygen due to complications at birth. When researchers detected oxygen deprivation, they randomly assigned babies to either usual care or to a whole-body cooling group. The goal was to see whether reducing body temperature for three days after birth increased the rate of survival without brain damage. What is the response variable

The rate of survival without brain damage

Step-by-step explanation:

The response variable (or dependent variable) is the variable that is measured and which depends on other variables. In this experiment, the researchers are investigating the impact of reducing body temperature on rate of survival without brain damage. The variable that they were 'measuring' was the rate of survival without brain damage, which depended on the variable of reducing body temperature, therefore the response variable here is the 'rate of survival without brain damage.'
