Question
Biological magnification occurs because the accumulated chemicals are:
Easily degraded and removed at each trophic level
Not degradable, so they accumulate progressively at each trophic level
Beneficial to organisms so they are stored deliberately
Found only in decomposers
Answer
Not degradable, so they accumulate progressively at each trophic level
Detailed Explanation
The chemicals responsible for biological magnification are not degradable, so instead of being broken down, they build up progressively as they move up the food chain. — Examisthan.com
