Q: Process: - Grass and small plants grow in an area - These plants die - The soil gains organic material - The soil becomes more fertile - Larger plants are able to be supported - Trees eventually grow. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more pollution in the environment happens, how will it affect less forest formation. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Q: Process: - An isotope has too many protons - The isotope is unstable - The isotope emits radiation - The isotope decays - The isotope loses some atomic particles - The isotope turns into a different element - The isotope is finished decaying and emitting radiation. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the isotope turns into a different element happens, how will it affect MORE radioactive decay occurring. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Q: Process: - As the sweat evaporates the sweat sheds molecules into the air - The sweat changes into a gas - Heat is drawn from the sweat - This process draws heat from the body - The evaporation also cools the remaining sweat on the body. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less surface available happens, how will it affect more heat is drawn from the person. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no

Q: Process: - Blood carried into kidney by the renal artery - Nephrons in the kidney filter the blood - The waste that is filtered out mixes with water - Become urine - Ureters carry urine out of the kidneys. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more trucks pick up recycling containers happens, how will it affect MORE waste being removed from the body. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A:
no
