Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is breathable air happens, how will it affect HELPING owls to hunt at night. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process????
output answer: no

Process: - Coal is loaded into the firebox - The boiler produces steam under high pressure - The steam generated in the boiler flows down into a cylinder - Just ahead of the wheels, pushing a tight-fitting plunger, the piston - The piston is connected to one or more of the locomotive's wheels through a kind of arm-elbow-shoulder joint called a crank and connecting rod - As the piston pushes, the crank and connecting rod turn the locomotive's wheels and power the train along - An outlet valve opens and the piston pushes the steam back through the cylinder and out up the locomotive's chimney - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose a person has done heavy exercise happens, how will it affect MORE power produced by the steam engine. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
----
Answer: no

Q: Process: - Carbon dioxide enters the leaves through the stomates by diffusion - Water is transported to the leaves in the xylem - Energy harvested through light reaction is stored by forming ATP - Carbon dioxide and energy from ATP are used to create sugar - Oxygen exits the leaves through the stomata by diffusion - The plant reuses the water or the water exits through the stomata as water vapor. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose shortage of seeds happens, how will it affect Trees lose their leaves more. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Question: 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 less mass pulled inward happens, how will it affect fewer air sacs in lungs being filled. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: no

[Q]: Process: - A bird lays eggs in a nest - The parent(s) incubate the eggs - The eggs hatch - The mother (and sometimes the father) bird take care of the baby birds - The baby birds grow up and get their flight feathers - The young birds learn to fly and leave the nest - The adult birds find mates and mate. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose Predator attacks more birds happens, how will it affect MORE birds. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: yes

Problem: Given the question: Process: - An enzyme in saliva begins to break down carbohydrates - Food is squeezed down the esophagus when you swallow - Acid and enzyme in the stomach break the food down - Releases nutrients - Food then pumped into small intestine - Fluid and enzymes from liver and pancreas pumped into small intestine - Help break food into smallest molecules - Nutrients pass through wall of small intestine - Nutrients absorbed into blood stream - Unused materials passed into large intestine to become fecal matter. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose person is vomiting from illness happens, how will it affect more fecal matter in large intestine. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
