input question: Process: - Food is put into mouth - Food is chewed and mixed with saliva (spit) - Food travels down the esophagus (throat) - Food travels into the stomach - Acid in the stomach breaks the food down further - Food travels into the small intestine - Nutrients from food are absorbed into the blood stream - Food travels into the large intestine - Most of the remaining material is now waste - The waste is eventually removed from the body. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose person eats less food happens, how will it affect less acid is being created. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process????
output answer: yes

Process: - Human beings burn fossil fuels (oil, gas, etc.) - Carbon dioxide from the burning fossil fuels enter the atmosphere - The make-up of the atmosphere changes - Some energy from the sun cannot escape back through the changed atmosphere - The earth begins to heat because of the extra trapped energy - Human beings cut down trees - Human beings do not re-plant the trees - Trees cannot help take the extra carbon dioxide from the atmosphere - The extra trapped energy starts to change the earth's short term weather - Eventually the long-term climate patterns start to change - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less environmental regulation happens, how will it affect more energy is trapped in the atmosphere. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
----
Answer: yes

Q: Process: - Owls have specially adapted eyes that see better at night - Owls sit at high points in trees and look around - When an owl spots a rodent they track it - When the rodent is standing still the owl swoops down - The owl grabs the rodent with their tallons - The owl uses their beak to eat the rodent. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the baby bird loses its parents happens, how will it affect HELPING owls to hunt at night. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Question: Process: - Water comes through a filter - The filter has small pores to catch pollutants - The filter will catch chlorine, heavy metals, and other chemicals - The filter allows water and mineral ions like fluoride to pass through - The water on the other side of the filter is much cleaner - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the water is contaminated prior to filtering through outside interference. happens, how will it affect HURTING the water purifier to work better. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes

[Q]: Process: - One type of air pollution is the addition of carbon dioxide gas into the air - Some scientists believe that releasing too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is one of the causes of global warming - This upsets the balance of the carbon cycle - The ozone layer helps protect us from harmful rays from the sun - It is getting damaged from air pollution such as methane gas from livestock and CFCs from spray cans - Acid rain is created when gasses such as sulfur dioxide get high into the atmosphere - The wind can blow these gasses for miles and then they get washed out of the air when it rains - This rain is called acid rain and can damage forests and kill fish. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose no filtration to reduce carbon happens, how will it affect ozone layer is less damaged. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: yes

Problem: Given the question: Process: - Green is a color that gathers sunlight easily - Sunlight is gathered by the leaves of the plant - The sunlight is broken down into glucose through photosynthesis - The glucose travels the plant - The plant uses that glucose as energy to grow. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more cloudy days happens, how will it affect less sugar and oxygen produced. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
