Since chain is the root you have three morphemes to explain structurally. Not too many possibilities so you can try them out. What happens? I think I know what your instructor has in mind but it's something you should work through yourself.

Sorry, but we have a policy of not doing homework for you here. The purpose is for you to practice, not for us to tell you the answers.

If you have general questions, or very specific questions that come up after doing the homework, you are welcome to ask those. But not "how do I do this problem" type questions.
