Process: - A star burns in space - Eventually it burns all its hydrogen - Becomes a red giant - Once the red giant burns itself out - The core of the star collapses - The gasses will start to disperse - Only the core is left - A white dwarf has been formed. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is less hydrogen in the star happens, how will it affect the core of the star is larger. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - The kidneys receive blood from the renal artery - They process it with millions of tiny nephrons - Remove all the waste - The kidneys return the blood back to the body through the renal artery - Send the urine with the waste to the bladder through the ureters. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is more water in the clouds happens, how will it affect the kidney is more active. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: no

Process: - A forest fire starts - The fire surrounds the vicinity - The animals are trapped - Those that survive have their habitat destroyed - The survivors must find a new habitat - Conflict with other animals occur. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is less rain happens, how will it affect a SMALLER negative effect on animals. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - Someone is infected with bacteria - That bacteria begins to grow and reproduce inside the cells - The dividing bacteria begin to make toxins - Those toxins damage your cells - Disease symptoms may begin. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose if the sun burn down all its energy happens, how will it affect the persons body suffers from the infected cells. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: no
