Q: Process: - A virus enters a host body - The virus has receptors that lock onto a target cell - The virus enters the cell - The virus uses the cell like a factory to make new copies of the virus - The new copies of the virus leave the cell - Infect other cells - The host gets sick as its cells are damaged. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the ice tray is broken happens, how will it affect More cells are targeted. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Q: Process: - Dead organic material accumulates on the bottom of oceans, riverbeds or swamps, mixing with mud and sand - Over time, more sediment piles on top - The resulting heat and pressure transforms the organic layer into a dark and waxy substance known as kerogen - Left alone, the kerogen molecules eventually crack - The molecules break up into shorter and lighter molecules composed almost solely of carbon and hydrogen atoms - It will turn into either petroleum or natural gas - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose carbon levels are increased happens, how will it affect MORE oil. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Q: Process: - Sediment settles in a place due to gravity - The sediment breaks down into small particles - Wind or water picks up the sediment - The sediment travels along the same route as the wind or water - The sediment is deposited at new locations by the wind or water - The sediment is picked up again by new wind or water - The sediment travels further - The sediment is deposited again in a new place. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose animal comes into contact with less sick animals happens, how will it affect The sediment will decrease and remain in its place. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Q: Process: - A satellite's need is determined - A group of people work to design a satellite capable of accomplishing the need - A team designs the physical structure of the satellite - A crew builds the physical satellite - The satellite is packed into a capsule - The satellite capsule is loaded onto a rocket - The rocket is launched into space. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose a crew builds a smaller physical satellite happens, how will it affect MORE or LARGER satelites in space. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A:
yes
