Biological Magnification➫ The process by which the harmful & toxic substances the tissues of organisms at higher levels in a food chain.
❱ It is also known as Bioamplification.
❱ It occurs when pollutants taken up by organisms at the base of the food chain reach high concentrations in the bodies of animals at the top of the food chain.
➧ Harmful Effects are:-
=======================
❱ 0rganisms at the top of the food chain are at a greater risk of damage due to biomagnification.
❱ It tend to have a higher risk of developing certain:-
♦ Cancers
♦ Liver failure
♦ Birth defects
♦ Brain damage
♦ heart disease
❱ The toxins responsible for these health problems include:-
♦ Mercury
♦ Lead
♦ Chromium
♦ Cobalt
