✯ Biological magnification refers to the process of increasing the concentration of a toxic chemical with increasing trophic level in food chain.
Harmful aur poisonous substance such as DDT sprinkled to kill paste on plants enter the food chain.
the plants absorb these harmful Chemicals from soil along with the water and Minerals. they enter the food chain at producer level and then transfer to the next topic level. the tertiary consumers get more higher levels of these chemicals.
