Toast landing jam up or down - questions on this experiment?

Question

What would be the independent and dependent variables?

What would be the control and why?

Answer 1

myth busters did this. control would be continual dropping a piece of toast with nothing on it, and recording the side it lands on, and recording. this should be roughly 50/50 then apply jam and test it the same amount of times you dropped the control. record thise result and compare. did the jam side land more often then a random side on the control, or is it still 50/50? variables include air resistance, weight, aerodynamics, and gravity
