Process: - Contact is made with a virus - The virus enters the human or animal body - The virus goes to the part of the body that contains its food - The virus consumes part of the body or materials that the body uses - The virus replicates and spreads - The virus causes symptoms in the body as the immune system tries to expel the virus. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose "the virus destroys less of the persons body" happens, how will it affect there will be more energy for the virus. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes

Q: Process: - Greenhouse gases are released into the air by human activities - The earth changes energy from the sun into heat - Heat rises from the ground - Greenhouse gas molecules in the atmosphere prevent the heat from going into space - The temperature of the earth increases - The temperature continues to rise and melts the polar ice caps - The temperature rises even faster. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the volcanos are located where earthquakes are more common happens, how will it affect There are more clouds in the sky. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Question: 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 is a drought happens, how will it affect LESS or SLOWER weathering occurring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes

[Q]: Process: - A larva is born - The caterpillar eats constantly until it grows bigger - The caterpillar starts to form a cocoon around itself - The caterpillar becomes a pupa - After some time the cocoon hatches - And a butterfly is born. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more larvae are born happens, how will it affect MORE butterflies. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: yes

input: Please answer the following: Process: - A male and female bird mate - The female lays eggs - The eggs are incubated by the parents, by sitting on them, for weeks - The bird hatches from an egg - The parents feed them as the continue to grow - Develop flight feathers - The parents teach them to fly - After learning to fly they leave the nest to live on their own - The next year they breed beginning the cycle again - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose fewer male and female birds mate happens, how will it affect MORE birds. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
++++++++++
output: yes

Process: - Carbon dioxide passes through stomata in the leaves - Water is absorbed through roots - Chloroplast cells in leaves contain chlorophyll - Chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight - Energy splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen - Oxygen gets released into atmosphere - Hydrogen and carbon dioxide used to create glucose - Glucose is food for plants. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more growing environment around happens, how will it affect LESS sugar and oxygen being produced. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
