Process: - Items are collected - The items are sorted - Trash is removed from everything else - Goes to a landfill - The items go into a baler machine for each kind of material - They come out as bales - The bales are shipped to manufacturers to use to make products. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less trash is generated happens, how will it affect more items are collected. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes

Q: Process: - A star forms - The star does not have enough mass to become a neutron star - The star goes through a change in its core and bonds helium to carbon and oxygen - The star becomes a red giant - A mass of carbon and oxygen builds up in the center of the star - The star sheds its outside layers and becomes a nebula - The star leaves behind the core which becomes a dwarf star. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the star has carbon and oxygen happens, how will it affect a SMALLER white dwarf star. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Question: Process: - The saliva breaks down the chemicals in the food a bit, which helps make the food mushy and easy to swallow - Your tongue helps out, pushing the food around while you chew with your teeth - The esophagus moves food from the back of your throat to your stomach - Strong muscles in the walls of the stomach and gastric juices break down food in your stomach - Your stomach moves the food into the intestines to complete digestion - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose during Thanksgiving happens, how will it affect MORE digestion occuring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes

[Q]: Process: - Water in the clouds becomes very cold - The cold water forms ice crystals - The ice crystals grow by absorbing surrounding water droplets - Form snowflakes - The snowflakes fall to the ground. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the acid secreted is not enough for the amount of food happens, how will it affect more ice crystals are formed. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: no

input: Please answer the following: 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 there are more storms passing through happens, how will it affect humans burn more fossil fuel. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
++++++++++
output: no

Process: - A person eats food - The person's blood sugar level rises - The pancreas receives a signal to release insulin - Insulin is released into the bloodstream - Insulin signals cells to absorb sugar - The cells absorb sugar from the bloodstream - The cells use the sugar as energy. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose running more often happens, how will it affect MORE use of insulin in the body. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
