What is responding valuable?

Do you mean "responding variable"? In a scientific investigation, you try to change only one thing to see what happens. The thing you change is the manipulated variable (also called the independent variable). The result of this change is the responding variable (also called the dependent variable). For example, what if you measure the temperature of a beaker of water, then put it in the refrigerator for 24 hours, then measure again. The change in the temperature from the room to the fridge is the manipulated variable (you controlled it). Any change in the water temperature is the responding variable. It responded to the change you made.
