The increase in concentration of harmful chemical substance like pesticides in the body of living organisms at each trophic level of a food chain is called biological magnification. The organism which occurs at the highest trophic level in the food chain will have the maximum concentration of harmful chemicals in its body. Since vulture occupies the top level as it eats the tiger, which eats the goat, which eats the grass in the food chain, it will have the maximum concentration of harmful chemicals in its body.
