Please answer this: Process:  - Food is put into mouth - Food is chewed and mixed with saliva (spit) - Food travels down the esophagus (throat) - Food travels into the stomach - Acid in the stomach breaks the food down further - Food travels into the small intestine - Nutrients from food are absorbed into the blood stream - Food travels into the large intestine - Most of the remaining material is now waste - The waste is eventually removed from the body.

Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Please answer this: Process:  - A mushroom gives off gills lined with basidia - The basidia gives off spores - The spores germinate - The spores create Hyphae - Multiple Hyphae meet and converge - They join with Mycelium - A hyphal knot forms in the ground - A primordia shoots out of the ground - A mushroom cap is formed.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose humans do not harvest mushrooms before they spawn happens, how will it affect MORE or LARGER mushrooms.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes


Please answer this: Process:  - Adult mushrooms produce spores - Release them into the air by process of sporulation - Spores are carried by the wind - Land in a hospitable growing environment - The spores germinate into the soil - The mushroom starts growing - The adult mushroom produce spores of its own to repeat the process.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less air pollution produced happens, how will it affect MORE or LARGER mushrooms.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
