Destiney Buchanan · Answer 1

The variables are temperature, light, and the kind of plant.

Explanation:

The temperature is a variable because one plant is in the refrigerator and one is at room temperature. The light is a variable because the room has light coming from the window, but the refrigerator does not have a light. The kind of plant is also a variable because two different plants were used.

The answer is the refrigerator and window.
