Asteroid impact
Volcanic eruptions
Explanation:
Asteroid impact and volcanic eruptions are two common events that could lead to a mass extinction.
A mass extinction is an abrupt decrease in life on earth due some catastrophic event.
- The collision of a large bolide on the surface of the earth is a catastrophe in itself.
- The collision and its aftermath have destructive consequences on life.
- The force of the collision can reverberate in form of vibration throughout the earth.
- It can cause heating of the earth surface.
- Volcanic eruptions can become global phenomenon that upsets the earth balance.

Answer: The population size is recorded for each species present in the construction area before and after the building is completed
This method of collecting data will provide the most accurate information about how an ecosystem is being affected by human development because it studies a lot of different species both before and after the construction.
Answer: C. The population size became limited due to factors such as availability of food.
Explanation:
Out of all the choices, C is the most likely to happen since more often then not, food runs out because a species has too many members. C is an example of the environment’s carrying capacity limiting the chipmunk species.
Since we are not told if the chipmunk population is really small, interbreeding may not happen. Predators hunt prey, not eat fruits like chipmunks do (I’m assuming what chipmunks eat.) If there was a predator species that came in, they would hunt the chipmunks instead of competing for the same resources. D just doesn’t make much sense in my opinion because that wouldn’t limit the chipmunk population.
