Q: Process: - Build a satellite - Attach a rocket - Add rocket fuel - Launch rocket - Satellite goes into orbit. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less particles in the environment happens, how will it affect less satellites are launched. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Q: Process: - Acid rain leaches aluminum from clay particles in soil - Aluminum flows into streams and lakes - Acid rain dissolves minerals and nutrients in soil - Washes them away so plants can't benefit from them - PH in soil and water gets affected which can kill plants and animals - Acid rain in fog at higher elevations can strip foliage off trees. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose a person has a poor immune system happens, how will it affect acid rain from the river, kill water life and plant life. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Q: 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 "the land isnt used by humans or animals" happens, how will it affect LESS or SLOWER erosion of rocks. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Q: Process: - Coal is burned in a boiler - Steam is produced under pressure - Flows into a turbine - The turbine spins - Creates electricity. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the person is being careless happens, how will it affect the turbine will spin at a more slower pace. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A:
no
