Q: Process: - Oil is gathered through mining operations - The oil is transported to stores - Oil is purchased by homeowners - Oil is placed into a stove in the house - The oil is lit on fire, and burns for a long time - The warm air off of the oil travels through the house - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the stove is working properly happens, how will it affect there is no working stove. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes

Question: Process: - Pollution enters natural water sources such as rivers and lakes - The pollution negatively affects the water quality - The pollution negatively affects the health of plants and animals - The plants and animals have shorter, less healthy lives - The plants and animals do not reproduce very well - The number of plants and animals decreases over time - The quality of water gets worse and worse as there are no plants or animals to clean it - Eventually there is nothing living in the water and it is unusable - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose isotope is less stable happens, how will it affect there is an increase in pollution. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: no

[Q]: Process: - A male and female bird mate - The female lays eggs - The eggs are incubated by the parents, by sitting on them, for weeks - The bird hatches from an egg - The parents feed them as the continue to grow - Develop flight feathers - The parents teach them to fly - After learning to fly they leave the nest to live on their own - The next year they breed beginning the cycle again - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more environmental pollution happens, how will it affect LESS birds. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: yes

input: Please answer the following: Process: - Carbon dioxide from the air passes through small pores (holes) in the leaves - These pores are called stomata - Water is absorbed by the roots and passes through vessels in the stem on its way to the leaves - Chlorophyll absorbs the sun's energy - It is this energy that is used to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen - Oxygen is released from the leaves into the atmosphere - Hydrogen and carbon dioxide are used to form glucose or food for plants. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more water molecules split into hydrogen happens, how will it affect MORE sugar and oxygen being produced. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
++++++++++
output: yes

Please answer this: Process: - The organism must die to begin the process - The soft tissue decomposes - The bones are left behind - Scavengers tear the body apart and move the bones elsewhere - Wind and rain also scatter the bones further - The bones left behind will weather and become buried by sand and soil - The proteins in the bone are replaced with minerals that are dissolved in the soil - This creates a rock-like substance called a fossil - Water and wind erosion wear away the layers of soil on top of the fossil - This makes discovery of the fossil possible. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the climate become more forgiving happens, how will it affect there will be a lot more bones. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes

Question: Process: - A butterfly starts as an egg - The egg hatches - A larva emerges - The larva eats and grows - The larva sheds its skin - The larva enters a chrysalis - The pupa grows inside the chrysalis - The adult butterfly exits the chrysalis - The adult butterfly is now fully grown - The adult butterfly lays more eggs. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose geologic conditions cause less magma to be formed happens, how will it affect there are fewer eggs hatched. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer:
no
