Please answer the following question: Process:  - You place aluminum cans and other products into recycling bins - Your town or a private company collect and transport the aluminum to a recycling facility - The aluminum is sorted and cleaned at the central recycling facility - The aluminum is melted down to remove coatings and inks - The melted aluminum is formed into large formations called ingots - The ingots are transported to another facility and rolled out to make them easier to manipulate - The ingots can now be turned into new aluminum products.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less aluminum consumed in the town happens, how will it affect more aluminum melted down.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer:
yes
