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 lower temperature for water happens, how will it affect LESS fossils forming.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: no


Please answer this: Process:  - Human beings burn fossil fuels (oil, gas, etc.) - Carbon dioxide from the burning fossil fuels enter the atmosphere - The make-up of the atmosphere changes - Some energy from the sun cannot escape back through the changed atmosphere - The earth begins to heat because of the extra trapped energy - Human beings cut down trees - Human beings do not re-plant the trees - Trees cannot help take the extra carbon dioxide from the atmosphere - The extra trapped energy starts to change the earth&#x27;s short term weather - Eventually the long-term climate patterns start to change -   Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more trees are cut down happens, how will it affect more carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes


Please answer this: Process:  - An organism dies - Water seeps into the remains - Minerals dissolved in the water form crystals - Crystalized minerals cause the remains to harden - The minerals form a fossil.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more clean clear air happens, how will it affect forming more crystals in the remains.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

no
