Process: - A person takes in oxygen through their nose or mouth - The oxygen travels into the body - Breaks down into glucose - Carbon dioxide is produced by the glucose breakdown - The carbon dioxide is exhaled out of the body through the nose or mouth. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less air is taken in through the mouth happens, how will it affect MORE oxygen reaching the body. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: no

Process: - A forest fire starts - The trees and plants burn - The animals lose their homes - If the animals can not escape, they may die from smoke inhalation - The plants that provide food are gone - The animals have little to eat - Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is no pressure build up happens, how will it affect a GREATER negative effect on animals. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: no

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 a lot of water happens, how will it affect less water turns into vapor. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes

Process: - Rain falls on wood - The rain seeps into the wood surface - It permeates the wood - When rain evaporates it leaves the wood - It takes the finish of the wood with it - The wood begins to lose it's luster - It begins to look bad - It has pieces of paint missing from the rain - It gets worse when it rains - It eventually will have no paint left. Perturbation hypothesis: suppose wood is in a desert climate happens, how will it affect more luster stays. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Ans: yes
