increase in concentration toxicity of chemicals in each trophic level is knoen as biological magnification. the level of these harmful substances will go on increasing from one trophic level to the next. when certain harmful substances enter the food chain at the level of primary producers,they get concentrated many times at each subsequent trophic level.Since the tertiary/terrestrial consumers such as humans occupy the top level in any food chain,the maximum concentration of these get accumulated in human body or any tertiary/terrestrial consumer's body.
hope this helps you!!!
