Explanation:

Carbon, is the backbone of all biological life on Earth. It contains 6 electrons, with 4 on its valence shell, and thus, readily forms covalent bonds with other elements. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons; in nature, this occurs with hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus as highly flexible single bonds capable of rotation; rigid, non-rotating double; and very strong triple bonds. Carbon compounds form rings, and long branched chains- thus, carbon can form macromolecules in nature.

In nature, organic compounds may be large chains of monomers form biological macromolecules which carry out many essential functions in the body. These can include nucleic acids, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. These are organic molecules, meaning they're ringed or long-chain Carbons bonded to the elements oxygen (O), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P); they are found in essential organic biomolecules include, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates.

What would most likely happen to the chipmunk population in 2014 if the population went up to 22 million in 2013?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: The chipmunk population would crash.

This is because the population would reach carrying capacity. This way, the resources would be strained and unable to support the high Chipmunk population. The increased competition for meager resources between the Chipmunks would result in increased deaths rate of individuals that is higher than the birth rate.
