The name of the process by which a harmful toxic material gets into a food chain and its concentration gets increased among the trophic levels is called biomagnification.
Explanation:
- The biomagnification is the process that comes into play when producers, or primary consumers, consume some of other substances as food which are actually unfit for eating because of presence of some toxic chemicals or elements.
- These elements like lead, arsenic, copper, etc are not metabolized in body of them.
- When the next tropic level members consume them, they are not metabolized but gets stored.
- As they consume more and more, the concentration of the toxin increases in their body which becomes enough to show the harmful effect. This is biomagnification.

Biological Magnification is also called as Bio amplification. This is the process in which a 'harmful chemical enters a food chain' and gets concentrated and more in each 'successive trophic level of the organism'.
Explanation:
- These harmful chemicals may be an oil substance, chemical substance, and other deadly substances. The metals also spoil the water.
- The 'massive pesticides and heavy metals' are found in the lakes and ponds.
