Question: Process: - You take a tray - Add water into the tray - You insert the tray into a freezer - The water molecules begin to slow down - The water becomes ice - The ice cubes are ready. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more trays put into a freezer happens, how will it affect LESS ice cubes being made. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes

Question: Process: - Minerals fill spaces between bits of sediment - The sediments become glued together - The glued together parts become hard like cement - The sediment becomes a big rock - The rocks erode slowly - The rocks come apart - The rocks become smaller rocks - The rocks continue to erode into smaller rocks - The process starts again. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose animals take sediment away happens, how will it affect less rocks come apart. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes

Question: 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 there is no blood in the body happens, how will it affect more rock is broken down. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer:
no
