Answer:

2. The dependent variable.

Explanation:

According to my research on the scientific method, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the number of hours spent at leisure activities is the dependent variable. This can be said because in this situation whether or not a person is an insomniac seems to depend on the number of hours that they spend on leisure activities. Therefore it can be classified as the dependent variable in this experiment.
