What is MANIPULATED VARIABLE? An independent variable one can alter to get a particular effect.

Well... a variable, in science, can be anything. More specifically, in an experiment, a variable can cause something to change, be the result of something that changed, or be controlled so it has no effect on anything. Variables that cause something to change are called independent variables or manipulated variables. Whether you choose to call it an independent variable or a manipulated variable depends on the term you pair it with. The acronym DRY MIX can help you keep these paired terms straight.
