Biomagnification is the process by which the concentration of toxic substances increases in the tissues of organisms as they move up the food chain. It occurs when organisms at lower trophic levels, like plants and small fish, absorb pollutants, and these toxins become more concentrated as they are consumed by larger predators, leading to higher exposure in top-level predators. This phenomenon is significant for understanding how pollutants impact ecosystems and human health.
congrats on reading the definition of biomagnification. now let's actually learn it.
