Question

A) bioaccumulation
B) biological magnification
C) ecosystem degradation
D) the ozone layer
E) ground-level ozone

Biological magnification refers to the process by which the concentration of pollutants increases in the tissues of organisms at each successive link in the food chain. This is why pollutant concentration is affected by an organism's trophic level, with higher levels typically having higher concentrations of pollutants.
