I believe the answer may be a sea breeze
Answer:
First, we take the owl out, the total number of mouse increases at a higher rate and the chipmunks are also decreasing in numbers. In an ideal ecosystem, both mice (lets call it "a") and chipmunks (lets call it "b") should increase since the restraining factor has been removed. But that is the opposite of what we should see. In that case, we will take the owl to be the "limiting factor" for the rodents.

The rodents will have free movement and exercise their fitness over the area, competition sets in between the two species. So we see, a flourishes while b dies out. This can be viewed most predictably that a has an overall greater fitness and would easily get resources and strive readily, which influences the survival rate for 2.
Hope you got something in any realm of understanding?
True, because somatic cells cannot undergo meiosis, only germ cells can.
A tentative explanation of a phenomenon that can be tested I believe is a scientific experiment.
