Chapter 35, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The concentration of pollutants in animals as one move from lower trophic level to higher trophic level.
Introduction:
Bioamplification, also known as biomagnification refers to the enhancing quantity of an element, like a toxic chemical, in the tissues of an accepting species at consecutively higher levels in a food chain. This enhancement can take place as a consequence of persistence, food chain energetics, or low or non-existent rate of excretion of the pollutant or internal degradation, mainly due to water-insolubility.
