[Q]: Process: - People separate different materials to be recycled - The recyclable materials go to a recycling center - The recycling center further separates the materials - Large equipment compacts the materials into bales - The recyclable materials are shipped to other recycling centers - The other recycling centers further process the materials that center specializes in - The materials are purchased by manufacturers - The manufacturers process the recycled materials the same way they would use new materials - The recycled materials are incorporated into new products. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose high heat to water happens, how will it affect materials recycled into a new substance. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: no

[Q]: Process: - Adult mushrooms produce spores - Release them into the air by process of sporulation - Spores are carried by the wind - Land in a hospitable growing environment - The spores germinate into the soil - The mushroom starts growing - The adult mushroom produce spores of its own to repeat the process. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose people and governments make effective changes that drastically lower the emission of greenhouse gas atoms happens, how will it affect more spores land in a growing environment. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: no

[Q]: Process: - A plant dies - The remains of the plant are buried very fast in sediment - The soft parts of the plant decay - The hard parts of the plant are replaced with minerals - The sediment turns into rock - The rock erodes - The fossil appears on the surface of the ground. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there will be a bigger heat source happens, how will it affect more plants decay in the sediment. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: no

[Q]: Process: - Water from the ocean washes onto beaches in waves - The waves contain sediment from the ocean - The water and particles in it hit rocks and sand on the beach - The wind and current sometimes push the water and particles harder - Tiny parts of the rocks on the shore come off the larger rocks - The waves pick up sand and small rocks from the beach - The waves go back out into the ocean - The waves carry the new particles with them - Rocks and the beach look a little different. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less particles in the waves happens, how will it affect MORE erosion by the ocean. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]:
yes
