Progressive accumulation of harmful substances at each siccessive trophic level is called as biological magnification
The process by which the harmful and toxic substances enter the food chain and get concentrated in the body of living organisms at each successive level in food chain is called biological magnification.
Biomagnification refers to the accumulation of toxic substances in the food chain. The toxic chemicals that are released into the environment are absorbed by the lower organisms such as plants, earthworms, etc. These chemicals are then transferred to different trophic levels when lower organisms are eaten by other organisms.\xa0
