Process: - Food enters the small intestine - The small intestine produces hormones - The hormones cause the pancreas to produce enzymes for digestion - The enzymes travel from the pancreas to the small intestine through tubes - The enzymes help the intestines digest the food - The pancreas produces the hormones insuline and glucagon - The hormones control the amount of sugar in the blood. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the person drinks more liquid happens, how will it affect pancreas produces less enzymes. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - You eat food - Your stomach digests the food - Sugars from food enter your bloodstream - Insulin helps turn sugars into energy - Insulin helps your body store the energy in fat, muscle and liver cells - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose using a program to heat water more happens, how will it affect MORE use of insulin in the body. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: no

Process: - Some of the rock in the ground is made of limestone - Over long periods of time rain can hit the limestone - And cause a acidic reaction - The limestone will slowly disintegrate - A large gap with be where the limestone was - Result in the cave. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is less disintergration of limestone happens, how will it affect MORE or LARGER caverns. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - The body's temperature increases over 98.6 degrees F - The hypothalamus in the brain sends a message to the body - Sweat glands in the skin receive the message - The sweat glands start combining water and chemicals to make sweat - The sweat leaves the skin through pores. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose Sweat glands will receive the signal to sweat happens, how will it affect LESS body cooling occurring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes
