Problem: Process:  - Bats fly through an area - The bat makes sounds with their mouth or nose - The sound waves travel away from the bat - The sound waves hit objects - The sound waves bounce off the objects back towards the bat - The bat hears the sound waves echoing off the objects - The bat knows where the objects are because of where the sound echoed from - The bat doesn't hurt itself by hitting the objects.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose "the bat wont hit any objects" happens, how will it affect STRONGER echolocation.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

A: yes


Problem: Given the question: Process:  - Fault lines appear underground - The fault lines grow over time - The rocks on each side of the fault lines rub against the rocks on the other side of the fault line - The rocks put pressure on each other - The rocks break from the pressure - The breaking of the rocks releases a lot of energy - The energy causes seismic waves - The seismic waves make the earth shake.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose a person is panicking happens, how will it affect LESS or WEAKER earthquakes.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

The answer is:
no


input question: 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&#x27;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 there is more shade in the area happens, how will it affect "less chlorophyll absorbs the suns energy".  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process????
output answer: yes


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 Less food is eaten happens, how will it affect the digestion process will increase.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes


Q: 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 the wood is covered happens, how will it affect the wood becomes soaked faster.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: yes


[Q]: Process:  - Water seeps into rocks - The water freezes and thaws - Cracks form in the rocks - Cracks also form when rocks heat up - The rocks slowly break down.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose it takes longer for rocks to break down happens, how will it affect MORE or FASTER weathering occurring.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

[A]:
yes
