Problem: Process:  - Food is taken into the mouth - The food is chewed - Saliva mixes with the food and starts breaking it down - The chewed food travels down the esophagus to the stomach - The stomach secretes acid - Grinds and mixes the food - The food moves to the small intestine - The small intestine uses enzymes to further break down the food - The food passes into the colon - The food is expelled from the body.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose material will pass through stomach quickly happens, how will it affect MORE food being digested.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: yes


Problem: Given the question: Process:  - The blood sugar drops in a body - Cells in the pancrease release glucagon - The liver in response turns the glucagon into glucose - And releases it into the blood - The blood sugar levels are restored.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more glucose released happens, how will it affect LESS regulation of blood sugar level being needed.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

input question: Process:  - Someone is infected with bacteria - That bacteria begins to grow and reproduce inside the cells - The dividing bacteria begin to make toxins - Those toxins damage your cells - Disease symptoms may begin.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the body is given an antibiotic happens, how will it affect LESS SEVERE disease occurring.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process????
output answer: yes


Process:  - Coal is harvested from a coal mine - The coal is transported either by train or truck to power station - The coal is burned in a furnace - Water is turned into steam in the boiler - The steam is cooled in cooling towers - The steam turns the turbines - The generator makes electricity - The electricity is sent through transformers.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there is less clouds bump around happens, how will it affect more people switch to electric fires.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
----
Answer: no


Q: Process:  - Food leaves the esophagus and enters the stomach - The stomach churns the food - With the aid of stomach acids - The food becomes a thick liquid - Is then passed to the small intestine.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose person produces too much acid happens, how will it affect food exits stomach quicker.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes


[Q]: Process:  - Air goes into the lungs - The lungs remove oxygen from the air - Oxygen diffuses from alveoli in the lungs to the bloodstream - Hemoglobin in red blood cells attaches to the oxygen - Red blood cells carry oxygen all around the body - Oxygen diffuses into cells from capillaries.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the lungs remove less oxygen happens, how will it affect more red blood cells carry oxygen.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
