Process: - Limestone is located under the soil - Rain picks up carbon dioxide as it falls to earth - The rain falls on the soil over the limestone - The carbon dioxide in the rain washes through the soil - The carbon dioxide turns into acid - The acid in the rain gets to the limestone below the soil - The acid dissolves the limestone - Acid continues to erode the limestone with more rain over time - The eroded limestone sometimes forms caves. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the area is having a drought happens, how will it affect less rainfall on the limestone. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - Gather the ingredients for the cake - Mix the flour, sugar, egg, and water to make batter - Pour the mixture into a cake pan - Place the cake in the oven to cook - Take the cake out when it is cooked through - Let the cake cool - Serve the cake - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the cake does not cook all the way through happens, how will it affect the cake will be burned. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Process: - Boil salt water - The water will turn into water vapor - Collect the water vapor - Allow the water vapor to cool - The water vapor will turn into liquid water - The salt will be separated from the water. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is not much water free happens, how will it affect LESS salt being removed from the water. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - Kidneys filter waste out of blood - Composition of blood is regulated - Volume of water in blood is kept constant - PH is kept at a constant level - Kidneys help regulate blood pressure - Kidneys stimulate the making of red blood cells - Calcium levels are maintained. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose You have more unprotected sex happens, how will it affect you See your doctor more regularly.
