Please answer this: Process: - A dam is built in an area prone to flooding - A large amount of rain occurs - The water builds up behind the dam - The dam opens its floodgates when it starts to get full - The water flows into a river below the dam - The dam closes its gates - The dam will occasionally open its gates again to gradually release more water - Eventually all of the floodwater will be slowly released into the river without causing any flood damage. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the climate changes radically happens, how will it affect the rivers will be more full. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes

Problem: Process: - Water comes into contact with something made of iron - The water combines with carbon dioxide in the air to form carbonic acid - As the acid is formed, the iron starts to dissolve - Some of the water breaks down into hydrogen and oxygen - The free oxygen and dissolved iron bond together - They form iron oxide, which is rust - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the water breaks down into hydrogen and oxygen happens, how will it affect free oxygen and dissolved iron will not bond. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: yes

Problem: Given the question: Process: - Skin is cut or damaged - Bacteria enters through the wound - The bacteria reproduces and spreads - Causes symptoms - The bacteria is either fought off or becomes a disease. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose wound is not cleaned happens, how will it affect LESS SEVERE disease occurring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

The answer is:
yes

input question: Process: - Plants start growing on or near the rocks - The roots of the growing plants start to break up the rock - The plant acids dissolve the rock - The rock is broken down into smaller pieces - Erosion begins. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is less rain happens, how will it affect more rock is broken down. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process????
output answer: no

Process: - Acid rain flows through soil - Chemicals from the acid rain kill plants and trees - The acid rainwater flows into rivers and streams - The chemicals kill fish - The chemicals kill animals that drink the water - Nitrogen builds up - Nitrogen destroys fish and shellfish populations. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the weather is sunny happens, how will it affect Less acid rainwater flows into the rivers. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: no

Q: Process: - An animal eats a lot of food to fatten up - The animal finds or builds a suitable place to hibernate where they can stay warm and protected - The animal moves into their den - Their heart rate and breathing slow down to conserve energy - They emerge from the den when the weather is warming up again. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the weather gets cold enough happens, how will it affect energy will not be conserved. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A:
yes
