4. Define Confounding Variables.

A confounding variable is an external influence in an experiment. In simple words, these variables change the effect of a dependent and independent variable. A variable should satisfy below conditions to be a confounding variable :

Variables should be correlated to the independent variable.
Variables should be informally related to the dependent variable.
For example, if you are studying whether a lack of exercise has an effect on weight gain, then the lack of exercise is an independent variable and weight gain is a dependent variable. A confounder variable can be any other factor that has an effect on weight gain. Amount of food consumed, weather conditions etc. can be a confounding variable.
