Answer:

The answer is A. the students' reading speed.

Explanation:

In experimental research, an independent variable is expected to change a dependent variable. In the example, whether the students are tutored by an assistant or a computer is predicted to affect their reading speed.

An easy way to distinguish both terms is to say: independent causes change in dependent.
