Process:  - Particles in the environment interact with rocks - The particles remove small pieces of the rock each time they touch the rocks - The particles continue to hit, brush against, or grow against the rocks - The rock eventually is broken apart by this contact - The pieces of the rock are now small rocks - The rock pieces are worn away into smaller and smaller pieces by the same forces -   Perturbation hypothesis: suppose there will be more work to clean the dishes happens, how will it affect MORE/FASTER erosion of rocks.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: no


Q: Process:  - Boil salt water - The water will turn into water vapor - Collect the water vapor - Allow the water vapor to cool - The water vapor will turn into liquid water - The salt will be separated from the water.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose people are more careful about putting out campfires happens, how will it affect more water will remain with the salt.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: no


Question: Process:  - Coal is mined out of the ground - Coal is pulverized into fine powder - The coal is mixed with hot air - The coal and hot air are blown into a boiler - The coal and hot air burn over a fire - Highly purified water is pumped through pipes in the boiler - The water turns into steam - The steam presses against turbines - The turbines spin - Electricity is produced.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more coal is used happens, how will it affect MORE heat for the house.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
Answer: yes


[Q]: Process:  - Air is taken through the mouth - Enters the lungs - The oxygen fills the sacs in your lungs - Carbon dioxide is removed from the lungs and exhaled - The oxygen is pass throughout your body.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose less air available happens, how will it affect LESS oxygen reaching the body.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
****
[A]: yes


input: Please answer the following: Process:  - A tree produces seeds - The seeds are dispersed by wind, animals, etc - The seeds reach the ground - Grow into new trees - These new trees produce seeds - The process repeats itself over and over -   Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the tree has a blight happens, how will it affect There are less seeds for dispersal.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
++++++++++
output: yes


Process:  - Aluminium cans are put into a recycling bin - Aluminium cans are then collected and taken to a treatment plant - At the treatment plant the aluminium is sorted and cleaned - Readied for reprocessing - The aluminum cans go through a re-melt process - Turned into molten aluminium - The molten aluminum is made into large blocks called ingots - The ingots are sent to mills and are rolled out into thin sheets - The rolls are ready to be made into new aluminum products.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose more turned into ingots happens, how will it affect MORE aluminum cans being recycled.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
