Answer:

The correct answer is option 1.) "testing only one variable".

Explanation:

One of the basis of scientific experimentation is to test one variable at the time in order to make sure that the obtained results are a direct consequence of the variable of study. However, testing only one variable at the time is not an easy task. It is necessary to establish a negative control which only difference is the absence of the variable, and a positive control using a variable that the scientist know is going to produce a response.
