Problem: Process: - The animal eats large quantities of food that will be stored as fat - Winter comes and the animal finds a place to hibernate - Over a period of days, the animal's heart rate and breathing rate drop slowly - Electrical activity in the brain almost ceases completely, though some areas remain active - The animal has entered hibernation mode - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose during Marathon happens, how will it affect HURTING the animal to hibernate properly. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: yes

Problem: Process: - You breathe in - Air goes through all the little branches in your lungs to fill up the air sacs, or alveoli - Oxygen goes through the walls of the alveoli and into the capillaries - The oxygen goes into the bloodstream - Oxygen is left and carbon dioxide is picked up - You breathe it out through your lungs - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose being outdoors in the open air happens, how will it affect a SMALLER amount of oxygen being delivered to the blood stream. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: yes

Problem: Process: - A fuel is heated in an oven - Above the oven is a tank of water that is sealed - The tank of water begins to boil above the oven - A the water boils steam is created - The steam is denser than air so it needs a place to go - The steam is forced out of the tank and into a piston - The piston moves up - The valve of the piston closes - The valve on the next piston opens - The steam fills the next piston, driving it up, and the other one down - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose when you are resting happens, how will it affect water boils more slowly. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: no

Problem: Process: - Rain falls on wood - The rain seeps into the wood surface - It permeates the wood - When rain evaporates it leaves the wood - It takes the finish of the wood with it - The wood begins to lose it's luster - It begins to look bad - It has pieces of paint missing from the rain - It gets worse when it rains - It eventually will have no paint left. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there was movement of tectonic plates happens, how will it affect LESS or SLOWER weathering occurring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A:
no
